Minnesota Vikings at Tampa Bay Buccaneers: Inactive Lists For Both Teams

We're ninety minutes away from kickoff at Raymond James Stadium, and in keeping with that the Minnesota Vikings and Tampa Bay Buccaneers have both released their inactive lists for this week's contest. Let's take a look at who will be sitting this one out for both sides, starting with the visitors.

Minnesota Vikings

DE Scott Crichton
G Vladimir Ducasse
LB Gerald Hodges
FB Zach Line
TE Kyle Rudolph
LB Brandon Watts
G David Yankey

Ducasse being inactive would mean, I assume, that Joe Berger will be starting at right guard in his place. Berger took snaps there with the first team over this past week. Josh Robinson is active as well, as is Austin Wentworth for the first time (in the regular season) in his NFL career.

And now, a look at the home side.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers

LB Jonathan Casillas
CB Brandon Dixon
G Kadeem Edwards
QB Mike Kafka
LB Brandon Magee
T Kevin Pamphile
S Keith Tandy

Josh McCown will serve as the backup quarterback to Mike Glennon in this one with Kafka being inactive.

And those are the inactive lists for both teams in this afternoon's game. We'll have the Open Thread up and running for you at the top of the hour, and hopefully we'll see a lot of you folks there as well.
