The Minnesota Vikings and Baltimore Ravens have issued their first injury reports ahead of Sunday’s game at US Bank Stadium. Here they are:
Minnesota Vikings
- S Theo Jackson, Concussion, DNP
- RB Aaron Jones, Shoulder/Toe, DNP
- CB Jeff Okudah, Concussion, DNP
- TE Josh Oliver, Foot, DNP
- S Harrison Smith, Vet Rest Day, DNP
- RG Will Fries, Calf, Limited
- FB C.J. Ham, Hand, Limited
- S Josh Metellus, Foot, Limited
- DT Jalen Redmond, Shin, Limited
- LT Christian Darrisaw, Knee, Full
The Viking have ten on their injury list but I suspect most will be active on Sunday. Theo Jackson was said by KOC to have experienced minor concussion symptoms on Monday so they placed him in the protocol. That suggests he may clear it sooner rather than later. Jeff Okudah has been in the protocol over a week now so he should likely clear it soon too.
Josh Oliver’s foot injury seems like a longer one to recover from, so we’ll have to see if he’s able to ramp up this week or not. I’d consider him more doubtful at this point.
The others- Smith, Fries, Ham, Metellus, Redmond, and Darrisaw, are all more minor injuries they should be able to work through or in the case of Smith it was just a veteran rest day. Ham missed the Lions game but it doesn’t seem like a long-term injury at this point after coming back from IR.
Baltimore Ravens
- None
The Ravens had a rare perfect practice attendance on Wednesday following their mini bye week after beating Miami last Thursday night.
This is in sharp contrast to earlier weeks this season, when the Ravens had a long list of injured players. Defensive tackle Nnamdi Madubuike remains on IR, however- he is a core player on their interior defensive line.
We’ll have a couple more injury reports tomorrow and Friday, so stay tuned.
