Carson Wentz finds Jordan Addison for go-ahead TD pass to lift Vikings over Browns

T.J. Hockenson dished on the "insane" arm talent he's seen from new QB J.J. McCarthy, and how he can "flip a switch" when he gets on the field with his teammates.

Minnesota Vikings quarterback Carson Wentz found wide receiver Jordan Addison for a go-ahead touchdown in the closing seconds of their game against the Cleveland Browns on Sunday.

Wentz’s touchdown pass to Addison helped put Minnesota up 21-17 with 25 seconds left. The Vikings’ defense then stymied Browns rookie Dillon Gabriel to clinch the victory.

Addison didn’t play in the first quarter but was clutch on the final drive for the Vikings. He had three straight catches, including the touchdown, and finished with five catches for 41 yards.

Wentz was banged up in the win. He suffered a left shoulder injury before halftime, but was able to play through it. He was 25-of-34 with 236 passing yards and the touchdown pass to Addison. He was sacked three times. His favorite target was star wide receiver Justin Jefferson.

Jefferson had seven catches on 11 targets for 123 yards. He made a crucial catch early in the drive to help move the Vikings up the field and at least get a shot to score a touchdown instead of trying for a game-tying field goal.

Gabriel dug deep to keep the Browns in the game. The former Oregon standout threw a touchdown pass to David Njoku in the third quarter to take the lead. But the Browns couldn’t add to the score in the fourth.
