The 7-2 Minnesota Vikings are heading into Week 11 with a matchup against the 2-7 Tennessee Titans this Sunday. The first injury report of the week is looking good, especially compared to the bumpy weeks they’ve had lately.

The Vikings have had an up and down battle with injuries this season. They’ve lost Christian Darrisaw and JJ McCarthy for the season. They’ve also gone multiple games without additional key players on both sides of the ball, Jordan Addison and Blake Cashman.

Early Week 11 Minnesota Vikings injury report

Going forward, staying healthy will be crucial to the Vikings remaining chances in the NFC North. The team held a walkthrough practice on Wednesday. Player availability is based on what would have been, during a normal practice day. While there were plenty of names on the report, nobody was listed as a “DNP – Did Not Practice”, a very good sign for the week.

Quarterback Sam Darnold popped up on the Minnesota Vikings injury report Wednesday, after his brutal showing vs the Jaguars in Week 10. The injury concern originated when he tried making a tackle after throwing one of his three interceptions.

The 27-year-old Darnold was listed as a limited participant and there doesn’t appear to be much concern that he won’t suit up vs the Titans. It’s not a surprise to see running back Aaron Jones on the report (limited), after he was carted off the field Sunday, before coming back to help finish out an ugly win.

Gabe Murphy, Josh Oliver, Cam Robinson, and Andrew Van Ginkel were also limited. Blake Cashman, Theo Jackson, and Ivan Pace Jr were also listed, but as full participants. Barring any setbacks, they should be good to go for Sunday.
