Yeeeeesss! Good news! Well, kinda....ish. Almost.

I have a feeling we're going to be seeing a lot of these DNP reports, it seems like Zimmer is more willing to let guys sit out a practice or two.

Groin injuries last for so long. I hope he really ready to play, don't want him out half the season.

They need to put the players in bubbles, like this:

@mattvensel -- Adrian Peterson back at practice today. Xavier Rhodes and Sharrif Floyd have helmets and are out there. Only one not participating is Watts.

[Mothman]

That's good news (for everyone but Watts anyway).

I'd hate to see the Vikes have to begin playing without defensive starters as early as week 2 so hopefully, Floyd and Rhodes will both be good to go on Sunday and won't be limited by their injuries.

Wow that first hit was a good one! I know what I'm suggesting at the next corporate "team building" exercise.

@mattvensel -- Final #Vikings injury report lists Xavier Rhodes, Sharrif Floyd and Rodney Smith as questionable. Brandon Watts is out.

"Several" fractures in Cassel's foot according to Zimmer. The Bridgewater era begins.

"Several" fractures in Cassel's foot according to Zimmer. The Bridgewater era begins.

Which means Ponder will be active next week.

The Saints injure another Vikings QB in the lower leg. A pattern??? Nah, just a crazy coincidence.

Which means Ponder will be active next week.

Let's hope Teddy stays healthy.

Fusco - pectoral, Robinson - hamstring, Greenway - ribs. No mention of Rudolph yet but I heard during the broadcast it might be a groin injury.

Edit: Rudolph will have MRI tomorrow for groin injury.

@AlbertBreer -- Per source, Vikings TE Kyle Rudolph's MRI showed he needs surgery and he will be out for about six weeks.
