How to Watch, Listen to & Stream Vikings vs. Chargers in 2025 Week 8 Game

EAGAN, Minn. — The Vikings are visiting the Los Angeles Chargers at 7:15 p.m. (CT) Thursday, Oct. 23, to open the NFL's Week 8 of 2025.

If this situation feels familiar, it's because it is. For the second consecutive season the Vikings (3-3) won in London in Week 5, had their bye in Week 6, lost at home in Week 7 and are returning to L.A. and Thursday Night Football in Week 8. This time, however, it's to face the Chargers (4-3) instead of the Rams.
