Chad Greenway is being phased back in for the Vikings, at least on a temporary basis.
With rookie MLB Eric Kendricks (ribs) declared inactive for today’s game and backup Audie Cole on IR with a broken ankle, the veteran Greenway gets the call as the starting MLB.
We won’t know for sure until the game actually starts but presumably Greenway will be staying in with the nickel defense as well.
A big part of the reason the Vikings installed the now-traded Gerald Hodges and then Kendricks as starters was to get Greenway off the field in nickel situations.
