Wednesday injury report for the Vikings in Week 8 against the Lions
The Vikings released their initial injury report ahead of their Week 8 matchup against the Lions.
The Minnesota Vikings released their injury report for Week 8 ahead of their game against the Detroit Lions. The report revealed that three key players would miss practice on Wednesday: running back Aaron Jones, who has been dealing with a knee injury, tackle Brian O'Neill, who also has knee issues, and guard Joe Huber, who is dealing with knee soreness from Sunday's game.
Vikings vice president Kevin O Connell stated that while Huber was not overly concerned about his availability, he was experiencing knee discomfort. Jones and O'Neill have both been struggling with lingering knee problems throughout the season. ESPN's Kevin Seifert had previously reported that Jones had been playing through a sprained MCL this season.
The Vikings' initial injury report for Week 8 against the Lions, which included several additional players who did not practice, can be found on Vikings Wire.
