Eagan, MN. — The 2023 Vikings better get ready for prime time.

When the Vikings announced their full slate of games Thursday along with the rest of the NFL, it revealed five contests scheduled for prime time.

Minnesota won’t have to wait long for a night game.

After opening at home in Week 1 against the Baker Mayfield-led Buccaneers with a traditional noon (CT) start, Minnesota will play in prime time in Philadelphia for the second year in a row. This one, however, will be on Thursday, Sept. 14, instead of a Monday and be streamed on Amazon Prime instead of broadcast by ESPN’s Monday Night Football. It will be the first appearance by the Vikings on Amazon Prime.

Minnesota is scheduled to host two Monday Night Football games this season. The Vikings will host the 49ers at 7:15 p.m. (CT) on Oct. 23 and the Bears at 7:15 p.m. (CT) on Nov. 27.

The Vikings are scheduled to play two times on NBC’s Sunday Night Football. The first appearance is set for Minnesota’s trip to Denver at 7:20 p.m. (CT) on Nov. 19. The second is hosting the Packers at 7:20 p.m. (CT) on Dec. 31.

The five scheduled appearances in prime time are the most since five occurred in 2018, which followed Minnesota’s 13-3 mark and appearance in the 2017 NFC Championship Game.

This year’s number could change because of flex scheduling procedures. Two potential marquee games — at Cincinnati in Week 15 and at Detroit in Week 18 — will have their dates and times determined later this season (scroll below for information about flex scheduling).
