Is T.J. Hockenson playing today vs. Jaguars? Full injury update for Vikings

Injuries have played a major role in the season for the Minnesota Vikings. Multiple players have missed games or will miss games due to ailments and those injuries could make an impact on the outcome of games.

Tight end T.J. Hockenson returned to action for the Vikings last week and caught three passes for 27 yards. Fans at U.S Bank Stadium cheered his return to action and his knee looked strong in Minnesota's victory. He is not on the injury report and should be in action on Sunday.

Full injury update for Minnesota Vikings

Let's take a look at the full injury report for Sunday's game between the Minnesota Vikings and Jacksonville Jaguars according to the team's official website.

Minnesota Vikings

OUT
Gabriel Murphy, LB - knee (Via X)

QUESTIONABLE
Blake Cashman, LB - toe
Ivan Pace Jr., LB - knee

It's not a great sign that both interior linebackers for the Vikings are questionable. Blake Cashman hasn't seen action since he suffered a turf toe injury against the Jets in Week 5. Reports are that he will be able to play and hopefully, he and Ivan Pace can be healthy enough to suit up and play against Jacksonville.

Jacksonville Jaguars

OUT
Ezra Cleveland, OL - ankle
Maason Smith, DL - ankle

QUESTIONABLE
Gabe Davis, WR - shoulder
Devin Duvernay, WR - hamstring
Trevor Lawrence, QB - shoulder
D'Ernest Johnson, RB - hamstring
Keilan Robinson, RB - toe
Brian Thomas Jr., WR - chest
Daniel Thomas, DB - hamstring
Andrew Wingard, DB - knee

The headline for this game is that Jaguars QB Trevor Lawrence isn't expected to play in this game as he deals with a shoulder injury, opening the door for former New England Patriots passer Mac Jones to step in as Jacksonville's starter.

Ezra Cleveland is a familiar name for Vikings fans as well. The offensive lineman was a starter at right guard for Minnesota and has been playing well for the Jaguars. His absence is big for a Jacksonville team staring a new quarterback and hoping to get their third win of the season.

Looking over the injury reports, it is clear that the list for the Jacksonville Jaguars is much longer than the one for the Minnesota Vikings. Despite the purple and gold having some important players on injured reserve, their available roster is getting healthy leading into what could be a very important three-game road stretch.
