The Minnesota Vikings have been a bit banged up over the past few weeks, especially on the defensive side of the football.
Marcus Davenport was one of the Vikings top free agent signees this spring, and he has played a grand total of four snaps on defense this season. Meanwhile, Josh Metellus has been dealing with a shoulder injury for the past couple weeks.
On Wednesday’s injury report ahead of Week 4, these injury problems remained apparent. 5 Vikings defenders sat out of practice, and while two of them were for rest, the others were due to injuries.
