Earlier this week, some eyebrows were raised when guys like Sam Darnold, Aaron Jones, and Cam Robinson popped up on the Minnesota Vikings injury report for the team's Week 11 game against the Tennessee Titans.
Darnold was dealing with an injured throwing hand, Jones banged up his ribs during Minnesota's win over the Jacksonville Jaguars last Sunday, and Robinson was listed on the injury report with an injured foot.
Luckily, none of these three players were given an injury designation by the Vikings on the team's final injury report for Week 11, which was released on Friday, and all of them are expected to play against the Titans this weekend.
Final Minnesota Vikings injury report for Week 11 vs. the Tennessee Titans only features one player
The majority of Minnesota's roster seems to be pretty healthy heading into Sunday, as rookie linebacker Gabe Murphy is the only player who the team has already ruled out for the contest in Tennessee, and he's actually still on the Vikings' injured reserve list.
As for the Titans, they've already ruled out cornerback L'Jarius Sneed and right tackle Leroy Watson for this weekend's game. Sneed hasn't played since Week 6 because of a quad injury, and Watson injured his back during Tennessee's loss to the Los Angeles Chargers last Sunday.
With the Titans not having their starting right tackle available, Minnesota defensive coordinator Brian Flores should be able to dial up some pressure-filled plays to make life miserable for Tennessee quarterback Will Levis this weekend.
No active NFL quarterback this season has been sacked at a higher rate than Levis this year, and things likely aren't going to get any better against a Vikings defense that leads the league in pressure rate heading into Week 11.
It's a great matchup for Minnesota and one that they can hopefully take advantage of to get a win on Sunday and improve their record to 8-2.
