Mackensie Alexander wants to return to Vikings lineup

Vikings

Three weeks after dislocating his right elbow against the Falcons, the cornerback thinks he'll be ready for the Bears.

After a week of practices, including two full sessions Thursday and Friday, Mackensie Alexander said he's "confident" he can play despite a right elbow dislocated Sept. 8 against the Falcons.

Alexander, the Vikings' slot cornerback, is still listed questionable Sunday against the Bears despite saying he's content with his nearly three-week recovery. He returned to practice this week with a brace on his right elbow.

"It feels good, been working extremely hard," Alexander said Friday.
