Winfield to Sit Again
Antoine Winfield’s bad hammy is turning into a major headache for the Vikings. The cornerback missed practice again today and is listed as doubtful for Sunday’s game against the Giants. No Winfield means a thin secondary again, this time against a Giants squad that will be without their leading rusher Brandon Jacobs and therefore likely to air it out, even with top receiver Plaxico Burress nursing a bad ankle.
Meanwhile, Adrian Peterson has officially been upgraded to questionable for the game. This is most likely a ruse by Brad Childress to make the Giants think they have to prepare for both Peterson and Chester Taylor, when in fact Peterson has no chance of playing. And he shouldn’t play, not when you have Chester available.
In other news…Matt Birk missed practice today because of a death in the family. No word yet on what his fine will be.
