Vikings offensive line takes massive hit with season-ending injury, another star in concussion protocol

The Minnesota Vikings have suffered a major setback to their offensive line ahead of their Sunday road game against the New Orleans Saints. Left guard Donovan Jackson will undergo surgery to repair a torn meniscus, a blow to the team following his standout season. If Jackson's absence proves season-ending, starting left tackle Christian Darrisaw could also miss time, as he has entered the NFL’s concussion protocol.

If both players are unavailable, second-year guard Joe Huber and veteran Ryan Van Demark could step in as the team's new starters at both positions.
