We’re about ninety minutes from kickoff at US Bank Stadium, and the Minnesota Vikings and Indianapolis Colts have released their inactive lists for this afternoon’s game. Let’s take a look at who will be missing from both sides.
No significant surprises for the Colts on their inactive list, as Gardner and Warren were both listed as out on their final injury reports. Anthony Richardson will serve as the primary backup to Daniel Jones at quarterback, with Leonard as the emergency QB. Punter Rigoberto Sanchez, who was injured in the Colts’ loss to Tennessee last week and had been listed as “questionable” for that one, is active and is apparently ready to go, but his situation bears monitoring, especially since Colts kicker Spencer Shrader has also had injury issues to deal with this season.
Claiborne becomes inactive with the return of Jordan Mason, who was activated by the team yesterday. DeeJay Dallas was also elevated to the practice squad and will serve as the RB3 behind Mason and Aaron Jones. Jakobe Thomas still can’t find his way onto the active roster come game day, which still isn’t ideal for a third-round pick on a team that has safety concerns. Overall, this is about as healthy as the Vikings have been since Week 1, even with Donovan Jackson out for the year.
These are your inactives for today’s match, folks. We will open the discussion thread for today’s game at 11:30 a.m. Centerthirty minutes before kick-off, and we hope to see you all there to watch this one with us!
