The Minnesota Vikings and Inexperienced Bay Packers issued their first harm studies prematurely of Sunday afternoon’s matchup. Right here they’re:
Minnesota Vikings
From Kevin O’Connell’s feedback earlier this week, it appears like Ivan Tempo Jr. could also be on-track to return for the Packers’ recreation. It’s extra possible that Jalen Redmond will be capable of make it by way of concussion protocol this week after lacking the Seahawks recreation.
Undecided about Moreau and Smith, however the latter appears nearer to returning primarily based on O’Connell’s temporary feedback.
Inexperienced Bay Packers
Jaire Alexander is as soon as once more on the Packers harm report, listed as a full participant. He was a full participant in final week’s practices as effectively, however didn’t play in opposition to the Saints. The remark was it nonetheless didn’t really feel proper, so unsure if he’ll play in opposition to the Vikings or not. If he does, it will likely be his first recreation in over a month.
Security Evan Williams is almost certainly not going to play on Sunday as Packers’ head coach Matt LaFleur talked about hoping to get him again for the playoffs somewhat than this week.
The oft-injured Christian Watson suffered a knee bruise in opposition to the Saints and exited the sport. LaFleur mentioned he may “potentially” play on Sunday.
Quay Walker didn’t play in opposition to the Saints on Monday evening, nor did Javon Bullard. The Packers are hoping to get them again on Sunday, however it appears extra 50/50 on these two. I believe the 2 tight ends on the harm listing for the Packers will be capable of go on Sunday.
We’ll get a greater thought with Thursday and Friday’s studies, so keep tuned.
