Week 5 of the NFL season is here and we have a full slate of intriguing storylines to follow, led by a pair of players facing former teams.
Minnesota quarterback Sam Darnold, arguably the biggest surprise in the NFL in leading the Vikings to an undefeated start, will face a Jets franchise that drafted him as a first-rounder in 2018. Former Bills All-Pro Stefon Diggs, now with the Texans, squares off against Josh Allen and Co. in what could be the matchup of the weekend.
Here's what to watch Sunday and Monday.
Jets (2-2) at Vikings (4-0)
The first London game of the season will see Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers take on his former NFC North foe, the Vikings. Which New York team will show up? The one that impressively dismantled the Patriots defense? Or the one that couldn’t break 10 points against the Broncos? While Rodgers has the accolades, Minnesota's Sam Darnold has been the better quarterback so far this season.
