The Minnesota Vikings and Atlanta Falcons have issued their second injury report of the week in advance of their Sunday night game. Here they are:<\/p>\n
Largely the same status for players on yesterday\u2019s list, except both Christian Darrisaw and Zavier Scott were downgraded from full to limited. Darrisaw seems to be on this full-limited-full schedule so that may not be a big deal regarding his status for Sunday night. Scott being downgraded may be more significant.<\/p>\n
There were also two additions: J.J. McCarthy didn\u2019t practice due to the birth of his son- congratulations McCarthy family! – and Isaiah Rodgers was limited with an elbow injury. I don\u2019t expect that to be significant enough to keep him out Sunday night, however.<\/p>\n
Same status for everyone on the Falcons injury report today, but with the addition of Billy Bowman who was limited with a shoulder injury. The key injury to watch is WR Darnell Mooney, who is a starter for the Falcons and has been a productive receiver. His status remains up in the air for Sunday night. Casey Washington has been Mooney\u2019s backup, so if he doesn\u2019t clear concussion protocol, the Falcons could be playing their third string wide receiver.<\/p>\n
At the moment for the Vikings starters, Cashman and Chandler are definitely out for Sunday night, while Van Ginkel and Okudah seem more doubtful to clear concussion protocol on a short week, but I expect Darrisaw to be back, but doubtful on Harrison Smith from what I can gather. Not sure on Josh Oliver and Ryan Kelly but based on Kevin O\u2019Connell\u2019s description of injuries these aren\u2019t likely to keep them out Sunday night.<\/p>\n
For the Falcons, Mooney seems questionable at this point among starters, not sure about Bowman. Drake London is likely to play.<\/p>\n
