Not a surprise for either I guess...We'll really need Gilbert down the stretch, now is the time to let him rest it a bit.
=================================================================
The Vikings will officially be without cornerback Stephon Gilmore for Sunday’s noon game against the Falcons
Gilmore left the Vikings' win over the Cardinals with a left hamstring strain and has not practiced this week. The Vikings will have Byron Murphy Jr., Shaq Griffin and Fabian Moreau as their top three cornerback options with Gilmore absent.
“It was always something that fingers crossed just in case maybe if he can get a limited day, he’d possibly be available, but he’s right on schedule where we probably thought he would be, and we’ll see what next week looks like,” Vikings head coach Kevin O’Connell said Friday of Gilmore.
Kicker Will Reichard and long snapper Andrew DePaola are questionable. Both returned to practice this week after missing four games on injured reserve and were full participants all three days of practice. They would need to be activated from injured reserve to play Sunday.
O’Connell said decisions on Reichard and DePaola will be made later Friday, as corresponding roster moves have to be made by Saturday afternoon to return them to the active roster.
The Vikings already released long snapper Jake McQuaide, DePaola’s replacement; kicker Parker Romo is preparing for the same fate.
Four other players were left questionable by O’Connell after Friday’s practice: outside linebacker Patrick Jones II (knee), defensive lineman Harrison Phillips (back), offensive guard Dalton Risner (back) and outside linebacker Andrew Van Ginkel (thigh)..
Jones, Phillips and Van Ginkel were all limited in Friday’s practice.
