Who will play in the game between the Minnesota Vikings and the Tennessee Titans and who will be probable, questionable, or out? Here is the injury report!

Every team wants to have their best possible players on the field for each and every game. Sometimes, that just isn’t possible due to injury, illness, suspension, or other personal issues. Thankfully, there aren’t many players who won’t be available for the game between the Minnesota Vikings and Tennessee Titans.

Scheduled to take place on Sunday, September 11, 2016, both teams will at near full-strength following some scary looking injury reports earlier in the week. Let’s take a look at the two teams and who is listed as having their status for the game in jeopardy according to NFL.com.

More from The Viking Age

Minnesota Vikings fans should be somewhat pleased with this list. Although both McKinnon and Johnson can be huge contributors for the team, other players which were listed earlier in the week have now been removed from the injury report.

Offensive tackle Matt Kalil, cornerback Xavier Rhodes, safety Anthony Harris and tight end Rhett Ellison were all previously included on injury reports in the past, but are all now listed as full, active participants and will be expected to play in Sunday’s game.

In case you were wondering, injury reports look a little different this year, as the “probable” status has been removed for the 2016 season and each designation has been updated according to Vikings.com.

"“A player listed as doubtful has a 25 percent chance of playing, a questionable listing gives the player a 50 percent chance of playing. The probable designation was removed from the injury report prior to the 2016 season.”"
