Andrew Booth Jr. injury: Vikings appear to dodge a major bullet

In the second quarter of Saturday night’s preseason loss to the San Francisco 49ers, Minnesota Vikings rookie cornerback Andrew Booth Jr. went down with a non-contact leg injury and needed the assistance of two trainers to get off of the field. Non-contact injuries are always a scary situation and usually result in the player involved missing a significant amount of time.

Thankfully, it appears that the Vikings have dodged that bullet with the Booth injury, according to Ben Goessling of the Minneapolis Star-Tribune.

Kevin O’Connell said Andrew Booth aggravated an ankle injury, but he said the #Vikings are hopeful they could get him back this week.
