The Vikings will be without safety Lewis Cine on Sunday, after the team ruled out him for its game against the Carolina Panthers because of a hamstring injury.
Cine played 13 snaps on special teams against the Chargers, working on all four of the team's punt and kickoff return and coverage units. He was not on the field for either of the team's kickoffs in the fourth quarter. The Vikings said Friday afternoon the injury happened during the game, but they did not report his injury status at the time because it didn't affect his availability.
