Andy Dalton Sharp, But Vikings Beat Bengals 17-16

CINCINNATI (AP) — Andy Dalton was sharp in his return, leading the Cincinnati Bengals into field-goal range on his only drive during the Minnesota Vikings' 17-16 preseason victory Friday night. Minnesota's Blair Walsh kicked a 51-yard field goal on the final play of the first half, the ball landing on the crossbar and bouncing through. First-round pick Laquon Treadwell, a receiver from Mississippi, had a team-high four catches for 41 yards. Undrafted Alex Erickson returned a punt 80 yards for a touchdown with 2:45 left. Vikings: CB Trae Waynes, Minnesota's first-round pick last year, started in place of the injured Terence Newman and had a solid showing. Bengals: RB Jeremy Hill hurt his left hand in the first quarter, had it examined and stayed on the sideline but didn't return. Bengals: DE Carlos Dunlap, on the starting defense's limited time on the field: "It was just three plays, but that's all we wanted to play because we knew the (starters) probably were going to get only one possession."
