Who is out and whose status is in doubt for the Minnesota Vikings and Detroit Lions Week 12 matchup on Thanksgiving? Here is the injury report!

Last week, the Minnesota Vikings were able to defeat the Los Angeles Rams despite not having two starters available, but they face another big game when they head to Detroit to play the Lions on Thanksgiving.

Thankfully, it doesn’t look like the Vikings will be missing many starters this week in a game where Minnesota will look to avenge a loss earlier in the season and get a big win to a team in contention for the NFC North crown.

Here is the injury report from Week 12 according to the official website of the Vikings.

Minnesota Vikings

Out

  • – none –

Doubtful

  • – none –

Questionable

  • Mike Remmers, OT – concussion
  • Brian Robison, DE – back
  • Andrew Sendejo, S – groin/hamstring

The good news here is that Mike Remmers looks to be improving from his concussion and has been elevated from Out last week to Questionable this week. Same with Andrew Sendejo, who missed last week. Even though the backups there have done an admirable job, their presence is a big one.

Brian Robison gives back more defensive line depth and should provide even more pressure from the edge and give breathers to the pass rushers.

Detroit Lions

Out

  • Jamal Agnew, CB – knee
  • Dwayne Washington, RB – hip

Doubtful

  • – none –

Questionable

  • Ezekiel Ansah, DE – back
  • Jalen Reeves-Maybin, LB – ankle

If Ansah is out, that would be a huge loss for Detroit. Otherwise, it appears as though it is a lot of depth players who are out or questionable for this week’s presence.
