Minnesota Vikings at Detroit Lions: Initial injury reports

The first injury reports for the season finale between the #Detroit #Lions and your #Minnesota #Vikings came out yesterday. The list for the #Vikings is pretty darn extensive at this point, with a lot of players missing #Wednesday’s practice session. #Let’s take a look at their report.

#Did #Not #Participate

• K #Dan #Bailey (back)
• RB #Dalvin #Cook (non-injury)
• CB #Cameron #Dantzler (hamstring)
• DE #Jalyn #Holmes (groin)
• CB #Chris #Jones (groin)
• LB #Eric #Kendricks (calf)
• DE #Ifeadi #Odenigbo (chest)

#Limited #Participation

• LB #Todd #Davis (ribs)
• LB #Troy #Dye (concussion/hamstring)
• FB C.J. #Ham (quad)
• RB #Alexander #Mattison (concussion)

#Full #Participation

#Yes, the #Vikings already have enough DNPs to fill out an entire inactive list, which is not an encouraging sign. #We already know #Cook’s status for #Sunday, as the team has already said that he will miss #Sunday’s game. #In the event that #Bailey is unable to go with his back injury, the #Vikings have kicker #Taylor #Bertolet on the practice squad to be elevated.

The #Lions’ injury report is much shorter, but still has some significant names on it.

#Did #Not #Participate

• WR #Danny #Amendola (non-injury)
• LB #Jamie #Collins #Sr. (neck)
• G #Joe #Dahl (back)
• WR #Kenny #Golladay (hip)
• QB #Matthew #Stafford (rib/right thumb)

#Limited #Participation

• OL #Tyrell #Crosby (ankle)
• OL #Frank #Ragnow (throat)

#Full #Participation

#No players listed

#Stafford is obviously the big one for the #Lions here. #He played in the first game between these two teams after missing the week of practice because he was placed on the COVID-19 list and eventually gave way to #Chase #Daniel. #He was hurt in the #Lions’ #Week 16 loss to #Tampa #Bay and only played the first few series. #Golladay missed the first game between these two teams and seems likely to miss this one as well.

#Those are your initial injury reports for this weekend’s season finale, folks. #We’ll have more updates over the next couple of days as the injury reports change.
