Minnesota Vikings vs LA Rams Injury Reports

As has usually been the case in recent history, the Rams are in worse shape, injury-wise, than their opponents. On offense, tackle Joe Noteboom, who played 50% of snaps last year, is out with an ankle injury. He’s joined by WR Jordan Whittington (18 receptions, 201 yards) and starting inside linebacker Troy Reeder.

Another trio of Rams are questionable, including rising star Puka Nacua (knee), who hasn’t played since LA’s Week 1 loss to the Rams.

Minnesota will also be missing one of its starting ILBs with Blake Cashman (toe) ruled out for TNF. He’s the only Viking player listed as out on their final injury report. Backup corner Akayleb Evans is questionable with a hip injury.

It’s possible that a pair of important Minnesota players could make their season debuts tonight: guard Dalton Risner, who’s been kept out by a back injury up to this point, played 67% of snaps on the Minnesota O-line last season; and tight end TJ Hockenson (knee) who had 960 receiving yards and five touchdowns for Minnesota last year.
