Vikings inactives vs. Saints: Beckham's debut will wait, O'Neill good to go
Jeshaun Jones, not Odell Beckham, will be the Jordan Addison replacement today.
The Minnesota Vikings have announced their inactives for their upcoming game against the New Orleans Saints at the Superdome. Wide receiver Justin Jefferson, the team's superstar, will officially return to action on Sunday after spraining his ankle during Week 3. However, Jordan Addison, the No. 2 wide receiver, and newcomer Odell Beckham Jr. are both inactive.
Beckham Jr., who was elevated from the practice squad, will not play in this game but may have a chance to contribute after a bye week. Vikings right tackle Brian O'Neill, who was questionable with a knee injury, is good to go and will play. The left side of the offensive line will start with Ryan Van Demark and Joe Huber, as left tackle Christian Darrisaw and left guard Donovan Jackson are both inactive.
The full list of inactive players for the Vikings includes O'Neill, Addison, Beckham Jr., S Jakobe Thomas, CB Charles Demmings, DL Elijah Williams, and QB Max Brosmer. Kickoff for the game is scheduled for noon.
