The Minnesota Vikings and Philadelphia Eagles have issued their second injury reports in advance of Sunday’s matchup at U.S. Bank Stadium. Here they are:
Minnesota Vikings
- OLB Tyler Batty, Knee, Full
- LB Blake Cashman, Hamstring, Full
- C Michael Jurgens, Hamstring, Full
- QB Carson Wentz, Left Shoulder, Full
- DL Tyrion Ingram-Dawkins, Hip, Limited
- LG Donovan Jackson, Wrist, Full
- QB J.J. McCarthy, Ankle, Limited
- RT Brian O’Neill, Knee, Limited
- OLB Andrew Van Ginkel, Neck, Limited
- LT Christian Darrisaw, Vet Rest Day, DNP
- OLB Jonathan Greenard, Hamstring, Limited
For the Vikings, Donovan Jackson was upgraded to full participant, so he is on track to start on Sunday as expected. Christian Darrisaw was added for his usual veteran rest day. More concerning is the addition of Jonathan Greenard, who was limited with a hamstring injury. Hopefully that won’t keep him out on Sunday. McCarthy continuing to be limited suggests he won’t be starting on Sunday. There is some chance Andrew Van Ginkel could play on Sunday, but the schedule for O’Neill suggests it’s less likely he’ll play. Tomorrow’s injury report should clarify some/most of the doubts on who will play on Sunday and who won’t. Lastly, while Michael Jurgens looks good to go, it was Blake Brandel taking snaps with Carson Wentz in the portion of practice open to reporters, suggesting Brandel has indeed taken over as starting center with Ryan Kelly on IR.
Philadelphia Eagles
- TE Grant Calcaterra, Oblique, DNP
- LG Landon Dickerson, Ankle, Limited
- CB Quinton Mitchell, Hamstring, Full
- LB Zack Baun, Finger, Full
- DT Jalen Carter, Heel, Limited
- DT Jordan Davis, Shoulder, Full
For the Eagles, two status changes from yesterday. First, starting cornerback Quinyon Mitchell was upgraded to full participant, suggesting he’ll play on Sunday. The Eagles did have a practice squad cornerback working with the starters during the portion of practice open to reporters, suggesting he may be elevated for the Vikings game. Whether that casts doubt on the availability of current starters is open to interpretation. Additionally, Jalen Carter was downgraded to limited, which casts some doubt on his availability, although he said he will play on Sunday. Landon Dickerson remained limited for a second practice, making it less likely he’ll play on Sunday.
