Injury report: Two players out for Minnesota Vikings in Week 11 vs Bears

The Minnesota Vikings may be coming off the bye week, but not everyone is back to healthy heading into their Week 11 matchup against the Chicago Bears.

The week without Minnesota Vikings football is finally over and the team is set to take on a divisional opponent in Week 11 when they travel to Chicago to take on the Bears with the NFC North lead on the line.

Not everyone will be suiting up for the teams this week since there are still some injuries on both franchises that will keep players from contributing on the field. However, there aren’t as many on the reports as in the past.

Let’s take a look at the injury reports for both teams heading into Week 11 as shared by the official website of the Vikings!

Minnesota Vikings

OUT

• David Morgan, TE – knee
• Andrew Sendejo, S – groin

DOUBTFUL

• – none –

QUESTIONABLE

• Anthony Barr, LB – hamstring
• Tom Compton, G – knee
• Mike Remmers, G – lower back

The Vikings could have used the blocking of Morgan in this game considering the strong pass rush of the Bears, but recently Kyle Rudolph has been doing a much better job of that in his game. Meanwhile, Sendejo continues to struggle in getting back on the field, but the combination of Jayron Kearse and George Iloka should be solid in his absence.

It’s not great to see Compton and Remmers both on the list because back and knee problems while working on the offensive line isn’t a good thing. Considering their injuries already and the excellent players they are going against, it could be a recipe for a long day for Kirk Cousins and the Vikings run game.

Chicago Bears

OUT

• Dion Sims, TE – concussion

DOUBTFUL

• – none –

QUESTIONABLE

• Bilal Nichols, DE – knee
• Javon Wims, WR – knee

Chicago should be as close to full strength as possible on Sunday Night Football, meaning Minnesota will have their hands full with the Bears in a stadium where the Vikings already struggle in the first place.

How big do you think these players who were ruled out will be in the Week 11 contest between the Minnesota Vikings and the Chicago Bears? And who will lead the NFC North after this showdown? Let us know your opinion in the comments!
