The Minnesota Vikings are set to take on the Atlanta Falcons on Sunday afternoon with quarterback Jaren Hall getting his first start in the NFL.
The injury report for both teams is out and is much cleaner for the Vikings than it is their counterparts.
Out
- DE Dean Lowry (groin)
Lowry injured his groin against the Packers in the first quarter and didn’t practice all week.
Doubtful
Nobody is doubtful for Sunday afternoon.
Questionable
- ILB Brian Asamoah II (ankle)
- WR Jalen Nailor (hamstring)
- G/C Chris Reed (foot)
Both Reed and Nailor are in their practice windows and could still miss Sunday’s game. Asamoah missed the game against the Green Bay Packers but did practice all week.
Removed from injury report
- WR K.J. Osborn (chest)
- WR Brandon Powell (shoulder)
- CB Akayleb Evans (neck)
All three got banged up against the Packers. Having Osborn and Powell active will be huge for Jaren Hall.
Injured reserve
- WR Jalen Nailor: The Vikings placed Nailor on injured reserve on Thursday after acquiring Cam Akers.
- LT Oli Udoh: He tore his quadriceps tendon against the Philadelphia Eagles and is out for the season.
- OLB Marcus Davenport: After injuring his right ankle before week one, Davenport suffered a high ankle sprain against the Chicago Bears.
- DE James Lynch: Lynch tore his ACL during the Vikings night practice on August 3rd.
- ILB William Kwenkeu: He was placed on injured reserve after clearing waivers when the Vikings waived him with an injury designation.

- QB Nick Mullens: He injured his back before the Chiefs game and was placed on injured reserve after the game.
- QB Kirk Cousins: He ruptured his right Achilles tendon against the Green Bay Packers in week eight.
NFI list
- IOL Chris Reed: Reed has been on the list since training camp started with an unknown injury.
- WR Malik Knowles: The Vikings waived Knowles with an injury and he reverted back to the NFI list after clearing waivers. He is out for the season.
Falcons injury report

- S DeMarco Hellams (hamstring): Out
