The Minnesota Vikings will be replacing the artificial turf at U.S. Bank Stadium with a version that rates better in injury data. The decision was made based on data compiled by the NFL and NFL Players Association's joint surfaces committee, which showed that the current slit-film turf had the highest rate of lower extremity noncontact injuries among the types of artificial turfs used in NFL stadiums. The Vikings will install the same surface at their indoor practice facility. The work will begin in February and be ready for the 2024 season.
