Vikings Begin Week with Familiar Injuries
The Vikings host the Detroit Lions on Sunday, Christmas Eve, and must win two of their final three games to reach the postseason. Winning only one of three matchups would require intense scoreboard-watching from the team and its fans in Week 18.
And heading into the rivalry matchup this weekend, Minnesota could again be without the services of running back Alexander Mattison and right tackle Brian O’Neill, two men nursing ankle injuries.
