The Minnesota Vikings continue to receive good news on the injury front.
On Wednesday, several players were limited but nobody missed practice due to injury. On Thursday, no player was added to the list and one player was a full participant for the first time in weeks.
Starting center Garrett Bradbury fully participated on Thursday after dealing with a back injury for weeks.
Brian Asamoah II, Lewis Cine, Marcus Davenport, Josh Metellus, and Nick Mullens were still limited on Thursday.
Mullens being limited may actually be substantial. Jaren Hall, the team's third QB, missed some time last week for personal reasons. This means Kirk Cousins could potentially be the only available QB on Sunday. The team signed former Minnesota QB Tanner Morgan to the practice squad on Thursday for emergency depth.
Davenport and Metellus were both limited in practice last week but ended up playing against the Panthers. Davenport made an immediate impact, collecting four tackles and one sack.
Asamoah has fallen out of favor, losing snaps to UDFA Ivan Pace Jr. Cine has struggled to get on the field with Camryn Bynum and Harrison Smith having incredible seasons.
Be sure to check back on Friday for the team's final injury report ahead of Week 5.
