Looking at the Falcons, we received a lot of updates on Friday. First with some good news: receivers Drake London and Darnell Mooney are both ‘good to go’ on Sunday night. London left Week 1 with a shoulder injury and Mooney injured his shoulder during training camp. Although he was able to practice on a limited basis, James Pearce Jr. is considered questionable to play due to a groin injury. Coach Raheem Morris said that he’s optimistic that Pearce Jr. will play, however.
Returner Jamal Agnew has been ruled out with a groin injury, so corner Dee Alford is slated to return punts for the Falcons. Ray-Ray McCloud will likely handle kicks.
The Vikings have a much longer list of injuries this week, and on Friday, they ruled out some key players. On Sunday night the Vikings will be without tackle Christian Darrisaw, linebacker Andrew Van Ginkel, and former Falcons’ corner Jeff Okudah.
