Friday is when the teams are due to present their final injury reports ahead of Sunday’s NFL games, and both the Minnesota Vikings and Green Bay Packers are leading the way until Sunday’s tilt at U.S. Bank Stadium.
Normally, we’ll put the visiting team first and follow up with the home team, but this week we’ll start with the Vikings’ injury report as there are no injury reports. Well, there Is, No name on it. So, in theory, all the players on the Vikings rosters are healthy, practice full all week, and will be available for Sunday’s game.
The same cannot be said for their opponents, as the Packers have some injury issues they are dealing with going into this. Here is a summary of his injuries for this week.

The biggest blow to the Packers has been Turner, whom I believe was responsible for handling the initial right hull and, at the very least, serves as the right backup for Green Bay. As we said in the report on Thursday, the Mercedes Lewis DNP on Thursday. A p te was a day of rest, so he didn’t get any injuries that we’re familiar with.
U.S. Those are your final injury reports for the Vikings and Packers to take part in Sunday’s big season opening competition at Bank Stadium. We’ll have more coverage of this week’s game as we get closer to the kickoff.
