The Minnesota Vikings cannot catch a break.

After losing Justin Jefferson to injured reserve, the team suffered an even worse blow last week when Kirk Cousins tore his Achilles. Heading into Week 9, rookie Jaren Hall was slated to take over as QB. 

However, Hall didn't even last one quarter before being knocked out of the game.

 Hall will miss the remainder of this game with a concussion.

#Vikings rookie QB Jaren Hall's first NFL start lasted less than one quarter: He's out for the game with a concussion.

Just five days after being acquired from Arizona, Joshua Dobbs is coming in at QB for Minnesota.

Hall was scrambling towards the end zone before taking a massive hit. The refs and players nearby immediately signaled for medical help. 

It didn't take long for Hall to be ruled out for the rest of the game. The rookie ended his first start going 5/6 for 78 yards. Hall also rushed twice for 11 yards. 

Without Hall, the team will turn to new addition Joshua Dobbs. Halfway through the second quarter, the Vikings trail the Falcons by a score of 8-3.
