Late additions to the injury report have been a theme for the week 16 injury report. Turner was added to the injury report around two hours after the initial report was released. He was limited on Wednesday for the walkthrough but improved to a full participant on Thursday.

The other addition was Smith, who did not practice on Thursday because of a foot injury. He hasn't been on the injury report for the injury and it remains to be seen when he suffered the injury. It is an area of concern for the Vikings, as Smith is one of their most important players on one of the National Football League's best defenses.

The good news on the report was that Gilmore remained a full participant, making his return to the field even more likely on Sunday afternoon.

The final injury report drops on Friday afternoon and will tell us on who will end up playing on Sunday.
