Davenport questionable

[minny65]

Vikings edge rusher Marcus Davenport has been listed as questionable ahead of Sunday’s season opener against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
Davenport was a new addition to the Vikings injury report with an ankle injury, and as of Friday is the only Vikings injury concern ahead of the game.


DJ Wonnum is next man up?

Weak.

A lot of injuries flaring up the last few days. Kupp, Kelce, Christian Watson, Waller. If Davenport is our only injured starter and he's just questionable, I'm not going to complain too much. Wonder if the Bucs sorted out Evans.

So he’ll be as effective as Z was the 2nd half of the season.

Getting Dalvin Tomlinson vibes... Hopefully I'm wrong and Davenport helps us out. D needs him.

I really hope "Davenport on the couch, watching the game", is something I never read as a lead to a story related to a Viking game.

Not sure what you mean here. Would love if Davenport gives us what we got from DT.

People talk about upgrades and downgrades. Most are unclear. The most obvious downgrade in my mind is DT to Dean Lowry.

I think Davenport is going to underperform unfortunately for the team this year. And this year at DT? Yikes. I think we need to hope that Flores has some magic, but not sure how we'll stop the run on defense this year.

You’re right! I meant Michael Pierce. 

Sorry for the slander, DT!

Yep, my concerns are still front 7 on defense and IOL on Offense - 2 of the same from last year.  I guess we are hoping Flores is enough on D and continuity is enough on the IOL.
