The Vikings may or may not have their top two receivers when they play the Saints on Sunday.
Minnesota has listed both Justin Jefferson (ankle) and Jordan Addison (hamstring) as questionable.
Jefferson was limited in practice all week, while Addison did not practice Wednesday but was limited on Thursday and Friday.
With Odell Beckham Jr. signing to the practice squad this week, the Vikings could elevate him if Jefferson and/or Addison are unavailable. But if Jefferson and Addison can play, Beckham is unlikely to see the field.
“We’re still working through kind of what that looks like,” head coach Kevin O’Connell said Friday. “Obviously with Justin and Jordan, obviously we’ll have to make that determination tomorrow based upon what it looks like for Sunday.
“But we’ve prepared really the whole receivers room — rostered guys and all of our practice squad — for just about anything.”
Additionally, offensive tackle Christian Darrisaw (concussion) and cornerback Charles Demmings (hamstring) are out.
Offensive tackle Brian O’Neill (knee), center Michael Jurgens (elbow), and tight end Ben Yurosek (ankle) are questionable.
Punter Brett Thorson (hamstring) will be back, as he’s off the injury report and set to play.
