Heading into the final week of the regular season, the Minnesota Vikings have released their first Week 18 injury report ahead of their matchup with the Chicago Bears. On the initial injury report, the Vikings have four players listed:
- LB Brian Asamoh- Limited (knee)
- C Garrett Bradbury- DNP (back)
- DL James Lynch- DNP (shoulder)
- S Josh Metellus- Limited (thigh)
Of course, Lynch is already ruled out for Week 18 because of the shoulder injury he suffered during Week 16 against the Giants. The hope, though, is that he will be able to come back for the Vikings playoff run.
