The Minnesota Vikings released their Thursday injury report and it has some familiar names.
- ILB Blake Cashman (toe): Did not practice
- OT David Quessenberry (knee): Full
- DT Taki Taimani (ankle): Did not practice
- CB Akayleb Evans (ankle): Full
- TE T.J. Hockenson (knee): Full
- S Theo Jackson (hand): Full
- TE Josh Oliver (wrist): Full
- OG Dalton Risner (back): Full
Cashman continuing to not practice is brutal for the Vikings. He is a crucial part of their pass defense and teams have picked on fellow inside linebacker Ivan Pace Jr. Head coach Kevin O'Connell that Cashman was going to be working out on a side field Wednesday but he wasn't spotted on either Wednesday or Thursday at practice. Not having him could be brutal against the Colts.
The other major change was Taimani going down from limited to a did not practice. He has seen around 10 snaps per game in run defense and that role could go to a player like Jalen Redmond or possibly the NFL debut of Levi Drake Rodriguez.
Friday will be the tell all, but it's likely that Cashman won't play on Sunday.
