EAGAN, Minn. — The Vikings returned to practice Wednesday in advance of hosting the Dolphins at 3:05 p.m. (CT) Sunday in Week 4 of 2026.
The Vikings are also scheduled to practice Thursday and Friday. Players will receive game status designations on Friday.
Receiver Justin Jefferson (ankle), cornerback Chuck Demmings (hamstring) and punter Brett Thorson (right hamstring) did not participate Wednesday.
Vikings Head Coach Kevin O’Connell said he considers Jefferson “day-to-day” after the star receiver left because of a sprain that occurred on his seventh snap at Tampa Bay Sunday.
“He’s feeling a little bit better as the week progresses, but not in any place right now to talk about what that means for the weekend,” O’Connell said.
The coach added they will not rush Jefferson back before he’s at “a certain place where we feel like he can go be himself.”
Linebacker Blake Cashman (elbow) was listed as limited on the initial report.
Running back Aaron Jones, Sr., was issued a rest day.
