Injury Reports For Minnesota Vikings At Detroit Lions

by Christopher Gates on Jan 1, 2011 12:39 PM CST in Minnesota Vikings 2010 Season

It's time to take a quick look at the injury reports for tomorrow's game between the Minnesota Vikings and the Detroit Lions, folks.

The big story going into this one. . .from the media's perspective, in any case. . .is whether or not Brett Favre will start for the Vikings at quarterback after missing the game against the Eagles with a concussion. On the injury report that came out on Friday, the Vikings listed Favre as doubtful, and Leslie Frazier was a bit evasive on the matter of whether or not Favre had passed his concussion test yet, but as of now it appears that we've seen the last of #4 on the field as a Viking.

Other things to highlight from the injury report include safety Madieu Williams being placed on injured reserve after his concussion, and former Golden Gopher Marcus Sherels being promoted from the practice squad to replace him, Sidney Rice being listed as doubtful with a concussion after the cheap shot he took from Asante Samuel on Tuesday (which, stupidly enough, wasn't fined by Herr Goodell and company), and Adrian Peterson being listed as probable rather than questionable like he was last week.

Here are the full injury reports for the Vikings and the Lions for this Sunday's game.

No Brett Favre!

What you just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your entire rambling incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.

Bye bye Madoo doo

Hope that is the last of him. Even though this pretty much going to be a must win game for both teams ( Lions try to end with a 4 game win streak and Vikes for LF job ), I think we’ll see a lot of the younger players here and there to see what they can do.
