When the Minnesota Vikings face the Detroit Lions at Ford Field this afternoon with a chance to wrap up the NFC North title, they apparently won’t have a couple of key pieces of their starting lineup.
While the #Vikings listed Christian Darrisaw as questionable after he’d cleared the concussion protocol, the expectation is Blake Brandel will make another start at left tackle tomorrow against the Lions.

The #Vikings are expected to be cautious at safety, as well, with Josh Metellus starting as Harrison Smith continues to work back from a lingering neck injury.
