The Vikings will be without receiver Adam Thielen and nose tackle Linval Joseph on Sunday night against the Cowboys.
Thielen will miss what amounts to his fourth game due to a hamstring injury suffered at the start of an Oct. 20 win in Detroit. He played seven snaps in his return last week in Kansas City before his right hamstring “grabbed” and he left the game. Thielen did not practice all week.
Joseph’s knee injury is concerning after the Vikings nose tackle was a full participant in Wednesday’s practice, but was seen limping through the locker room Thursday.
