Cordarrelle Patterson might finally get a chance to play this season.
The wide receiver has just one catch for nine yards in the Vikings' first three games, but injuries to Charles Johnson (ribs) and Jarius Wright (hand), the way could be cleared for Patterson to play Sunday at Denver.
"My time, it's going to come, and I've just got to be ready when my opportunity comes," Patterson said Friday. "Don't slip up or do anything stupid. Just go out there and take advantage of it."
Also listed as out Sunday are strong safety Andrew Sendejo (left knee), defensive end Justin Trattou (foot) and cornerback Jabari Price (shoulder).
