Jeff Miller, the league's executive vice president, confirmed that U.S. Bank Stadium was chosen as the contingency site for the game.

The game is still planned for Raymond James Stadium. The area has been evacuated because of the effects of Ian.

The Vikings will play in London and U.S Bank Stadium is available.

Miller promised that the league would not do anything to negatively impact public safety efforts in the affected areas. The game would be played on Sunday night if the game is moved.

Miller said that this is only a contingency and that they will be flexible.

The Miami Dolphins facility is where the players, coaches and some of their families are practicing. The team has a choice of where to play. The outside forces can't be controlled according to the coach. "Our thoughts are with the city of Tampa, but where we have to play, and we hope that everything is okay." We just need to focus and lock in if we have to go somewhere else. We have to be ready to play so nobody will feel bad for us.

The team will be prepared to play wherever the game is played.

We will get ourselves ready for that. We will move forward when the league announces it. There is a chance that it could be inMinneapolis. My thoughts are with the people of Tampa. From what I heard, it sounds like it could be quite a deal.

The National Football League has moved a game before for weather reasons. Ford Field has hosted these games before. The Vikings and New York Giants game at the Metrodome was stopped by snow and the stadium's roof collapsing. Heavy snow in Buffalo forced the Bills and Jets to move their stadiums.
