Pregame: Fullback C.J. Ham added to list of Vikings' injured not playing in New Orleans

Fullback C.J. Ham played through a quad injury against the Bears, but he was added to the list of injured Vikings players ruled out for Friday's game in New Orleans.

Ham was listed questionable to play after a quick five-day turnaround from Sunday's loss to Chicago, but he's among the team's seven inactives vs. the Saints. That list also includes three linebackers — Eric Kendricks (calf), Troy Dye (concussion) and Todd Davis (ribs) — as well as tight end Kyle Rudolph (foot), running back Alexander Mattison (concussion) and defensive end Jalyn Holmes.

Linebacker is incredibly thin, with only Wilson, Ryan Connelly and rookie Blake Lynch among available options.
