Laquon Treadwell had a good weekend.

The Vikings wide receiver caught three passes for 44 yards in Friday’s 21-20 preseason win over Seattle at U.S. Bank Stadium. Then in practice Sunday, he beat All-Pro cornerback Xavier Rhodes for a long touchdown pass from Kirk Cousins down the left side during seven-on-seven drills.

“It was really good,’’ Treadwell said. “Me and Xavier, we’re always competing. He makes plays on me, and I make plays on him. So it’s fun to get one on him.’’

The didn’t happen much in practice during Treadwell’s first two seasons. After being taken with the No. 23 pick in the 2016 draft, he caught just one pass in 2016 and 20 last year.

“He’s coming around, from his rookie year to now,’’ Rhodes said. “Coming out of his breaks, releasing off the ball pretty well, attacking the ball when it’s in the air.’’

Treadwell has emerged as Minnesota’s No. 3 receiver behind Stefon Diggs and Adam Thielen. Against the Seahawks, he had all three of his receptions from Cousins during a two-minute drill at the end of the first half. One went for 27 yards.

“I think they were pretty good,’’ Treadwell said. “Obviously, I helped the team move the ball down the field. … I think I contributed really well.’’

BEEBE SITS OUT AFTER BIG GAME

Wide receiver Chad Beebe was one of the stars Friday. On Sunday, though, he sat out practice and had a wrap on an upper leg.

Beebe caught five passes for 59 yards, including a 25-yard reception from Kyle Sloter on fourth-and-15 with 47 seconds remaining. Sloter then threw a 2-point conversion pass to Jake Wieneke for the winning points.

Also out Sunday were cornerbacks Mackensie Alexander, Mike Hughes and Marcus Sherels, wide receivers Stacy Coley and Tavarres King, safety Jack Tocho, linebacker Devante Downs and offensive lineman Josh Andrews. Sherels suffered a right hamstring strain Friday.

Going through a full practice for the first time in 2 1/2 weeks was defensive end Everson Griffen, who had a wrap on his lower left leg. Griffen sat out the past two preseason games and likely also won’t play Thursday at Tennessee. Starters are not expected to play in the preseason finale.

All of Minnesota’s running backs practiced, including Mack Brown, who has missed the past two preseason games. Vikings coach Mike Zimmer said starter Dalvin Cook, who carried twice for 1 yard against Seattle in his first action since suffering a torn ACL last October, has had no issues since the game.

“He didn’t get hit that much,’’ Zimmer said. “He’s fine.”

SIEMIAN UNDISPUTED BACKUP

Zimmer said there’s no question Trevor Siemian is the No. 2 quarterback behind Cousins.

Former Vikings tight end Stu Voigt: Vikings, game-day atmosphere missing ‘the juice’ Sloter, the third-stringer, has had a strong preseason, compiling a passer rating of 111.4 to Siemian’s 82.3. But Sloter, a second-year man, never has played in an NFL regular-season game while Siemian, a four-year veteran, has 24 career starts.

“The other night he didn’t play as well as he had in the past, so he has to improve some,’’ Zimmer said of Siemian completing 4 of 8 passes for 3 yards and being sacked three times against Seattle.
