It’s time to take a look at the last injury reports for the regular season, as both the Minnesota Vikings and the Chicago Bears have given us their final lists ahead of Sunday’s game at Soldier Field. Let’s take a look at both sides.

Minnesota Vikings Week 18 Injury Report

Player Position Injury Wednesday Thursday Friday Sunday Status
Player Position Injury Wednesday Thursday Friday Sunday Status
Garrett Bradbury C Back DNP DNP DNP Out
James Lynch DL Shoulder DNP DNP DNP Out
Brian Asamoah LB Knee LP LP LP Questionable
Cameron Dantzler CB Ankle --- --- LP Questionable
Za'Darius Smith OLB NIR (Personal) --- --- DNP Questionable
Josh Metellus S Thigh LP FP FP ---

Bradbury will, officially, miss his fifth consecutive game after not practicing all week, giving Chris Reed the start at center. Hopefully with a week of practice things will be better than they were last week. Za’Darius Smith had a personal issue to deal with that caused him to miss practice on Friday, but Kevin O’Connell said that they anticipated having him available when Sunday’s game comes around. And, yes, Cameron Dantzler’s ankle appears to be playing up again. He’ll shake it eventually. . .we hope.

Those are the last injury reports of the regular season, ladies and gentlemen. We’ll continue bringing you more news on Sunday’s game as more comes in.
