Vikings at Lions: Second Injury Report

The Minnesota Vikings and Detroit Lions have issued their second injury reports in advance of Sunday’s game at Ford Field. Here they are (changes in bold):

Minnesota Vikings

• FB C.J. Ham, Hand, DNP
• CB Jeff Okudah, Concussion, DNP
• TE Josh Oliver, Foot, DNP
• OLB Jonathan Greenard, Ankle, Full
• RT Brian O’Neill, Knee, Limited
• CB Isaiah Rodgers, Shoulder, Limited
• LT Christian Darrisaw, Knee, DNP
• QB J.J. McCarthy, Ankle, Full
• OLB Andrew Van Ginkel, Neck, Full

Not many changes for the Vikings from yesterday. It looks like Christian Darrisaw is getting his normal day off of practice on Thursday, as part of a now long-running day on, day off routine. Jonathan Greenard was also upgraded to full participant, which bodes well for his starting on Sunday.

Detroit Lions

• S Kerby Joseph, Knee, DNP
• RB Craig Reynolds, Hamstring, DNP
• LT Taylor Decker, Shoulder, Full
• CB Avonte Maddox, Hamstring, Limited
• DE Al-Quadin Muhammad, Hamstring, Full
• LB Malcom Rodriquez, Knee, Limited
• S Daniel Thomas, Forearm, Limited
• RB Sione Vaki, Groin, Limited
• CB Terrion Arnold, Shoulder, Full

For the Lions, some positive news as both starting left tackle Taylor Decker and starting right end Al-Quadin Muhammad were upgraded to full participants. Kerby Joseph and Craig Reynolds not participating for a second day casts more doubt on their availability for Sunday’s contest.

We’ll have one more injury report update tomorrow that may clear up more of the uncertainty around injured players. But for the Vikings, it looks like they’ll be healthier than they’ve been all season so far at noon on Sunday.
