We have once again reached Friday, and in addition to getting down on Friday, teams across the National Football League have released their final injury reports. The Minnesota Vikings and Detroit Lions are no different, so let's take a look at the bumps and bruises for this week, starting with the road team.
Detroit Lions
Player | Position | Injury | Sunday Status |
Israel Idonije | DE | Neck | Out |
LaAdrian Waddle | OT | Ankle | Out |
Dwight Bentley | CB | Concussion | Doubtful |
Chris Houston | CB | Toe/Illness | Doubtful |
Jonte Green | CB | Shoulder | Questionable |
Calvin Johnson | WR | Knee | Questionable |
Joique Bell | RB | Knee | Probable |
Louis Delmas | S | Knee | Probable |
Dylan Gandy | G | Illness | Probable |
DeAndre Levy | LB | Foot | Probable |
Rashean Mathis | CB | Illness | Probable |
Darius Slay | CB | Knee | Probable |
John Wendling | S | Ankle | Probable |
Obviously, the big name on this list is Megatron. Oh, and if you're a cornerback presently employed by the Detroit Lions, sorry that you're injured.
And if you thought the visiting team had a lot of names on the injury report, just wait until you get a look at the home team.
Minnesota Vikings
Player | Position | Injury | Sunday Status |
Audie Cole | LB | Ankle | Out |
Toby Gerhart | RB | Hamstring | Out |
Letroy Guion | DT | Quadriceps | Doubtful |
Adrian Peterson | RB | Groin/Foot | Doubtful |
Shaun Prater | CB | Ankle | Questionable |
Xavier Rhodes | CB | Ankle | Questionable |
Matt Asiata | RB | Ankle | Probable |
Chris Cook | CB | Knee | Probable |
Larry Dean | LB | Knee | Probable |
Fred Evans | DT | Knee | Probable |
Jerome Felton | FB | Knee | Probable |
Brandon Fusco | G | Knee | Probable |
Charlie Johnson | G | Non-Injury | Probable |
Cordarrelle Patterson | WR | Chest | Probable |
Marcus Sherels | CB | Shoulder | Probable |
Harrison Smith | S | Groin/Foot | Probable |
Yep, the Vikings have nearly 1/3 of the active roster listed on the injury report in some way. Haven't heard much about Cordarrelle Patterson being injured, but I'm guessing it won't stop him from being out there on Sunday. We've already gone over Peterson and Gerhart being out. No word yet on whether or not Rick Fenney is bring brought in to back up Asiata and Joe Banyard. And, like Detroit, basically all of our corners are injured.
And those are your (rather sizeable) injury reports for the Minnesota Vikings and the Detroit Lions going into the 2013 regular season finale.
