In a thrilling matchup, the Los Angeles Rams defeated the Minnesota Vikings 30-20 on Thursday night. The Rams were led by quarterback Matthew Stafford, who threw for 279 yards and four touchdowns. Pro Bowl receivers Cooper Kupp and Puka Nacua returned to the field, with Nacua racking up 106 receiving yards and Kupp scoring a touchdown.
Despite the Vikings’ kicker Will Reichard making all of his field goals and extra points, Minnesota couldn’t overcome the Rams’ offense. Reichard’s perfect streak of 14-of-14 field-goal attempts and 20-of-20 extra-point kicks in his rookie season has been unprecedented in the NFL’s history.
Other notable players from Alabama on the field during the game included Darious Williams from UAB, who started at cornerback for the Rams and recorded five tackles and a tackle for loss. Vikings quarterback Nick Mullens (Spain Park) and linebacker Dallas Turner (Alabama) also made appearances.
Minnesota, now 5-2, will face the Indianapolis Colts in their next game, while Los Angeles, with a record of 3-4, will take on the Seattle Seahawks. This game showcased the talent of Alabama’s Will Reichard and other players from the state, providing an exciting matchup for NFL fans.
