These are the key players to watch for the Buffalo Bills when they face the Minnesota Vikings in the final preseason game of the year.

The Buffalo Bills have had a successful preseason to this point, with wins over the Indianapolis Colts, Carolina Panthers and Detroit Lions. The Bills will look to keep that streak going on Thursday night against the Minnesota Vikings but will be relying on their depth to secure the victory.

The last preseason game is one that NFL teams typically keep their starters out to avoid losing them to serious injuries right before the start of the regular season. There is no reason to think the Bills won’t follow suit and hold out most, if not all, of their starters.

However, this doesn’t mean that this is not a game worth watching. There will be a number of players on the field for the Bills that fans should pay close attention to. These are players who are fighting for roster spots, whether with the Bills or another NFL team, and will have plenty of motivation to perform.

We take a look at five key players on the Buffalo Bills that fans should play close attention to against the Minnesota Vikings on Thursday night.
