Pretty quick turnaround all things considered. Not sure if he'll play Sunday, but most likely the last 2 games.
Isn't this a formality more than an indicator of his readiness? He was designated to return and its now 21 days to practice and either make him active or IR him for the rest of the year? With 3 games left this is kind of mute unless they make the playoffs.

I am thrilled for him regardless
On the one hand we have Hicks fighting like hell to return, on the other we have Davenport sitting like a dog turd on an outdoor couch. Character matters…!
On Davenport:
KSTP’s Darren Wolfson reported on Tuesday, December 19, that the injury doesn’t appear to be in question anymore. Davenport has been out of the walking boot for almost two weeks and the Vikings have “thought he’d be back by now.”
The bigger question is Davenport’s “desire” to be back on the field, according to Wolfson.
“Marcus Davenport, there has been optimism in the building going back weeks that he will be back,” Wolfson said on the SKOR North’s “Mackey and Judd” podcast. “He does have incentive to play. He gets paid these bonuses if he’s active, but there still is some desire questions there. … Ultimately it’s the player. The player has to want it. There are questions about the player’s want there.”

This report is bizarre and sounds so much like bullshit. But it's being reported by Wolfson, who's typically reliable. So...wow.

I thought the same thing, but to be honest I didn't know much about his history. Looking at his time with the Saints, he had a lot of DNP/Inactives. Maybe he had valid reasons, but it does make you wonder.

Heard an interview with Hicks today. He said he feels great. Sounds like he may be back sooner than later. After watching Browning complete pass after pass to the middle of the field in the second half last week, this is promising news.
