Vikings place Cam Dantzler on injured reserve

When talking about Cameron Dantzler’s ankle injury, Minnesota Vikings head coach Kevin O’Connell spent the week telling reporters that it was a week-to-week injury.

As of today, it’s at least a four-week injury.

The team has announced that Dantzler is being placed on injured reserve, meaning that he will be out for at least the next four games. He is expected to return at some point this season, but the earliest we’ll see him back is the Week 14 matchup against the Detroit Lions.

Dantzler had been playing pretty well this season after being sort of up-and-down in his first two years in the league.
