Vikings injury report is nearly all clear
The Minnesota Vikings face off against the Chicago Bears on Sunday afternoon on Fox.
Over the first four weeks of the season, the Vikings have only lost four games due to injury. That will change this week as they lost safety Lewis Cine to a compound fracture in his left leg last Sunday against the New Orleans Saints.
One of those games was cornerback Andrew Booth Jr. who has missed the last three games due to a quad injury he suffered against the Green Bay Packers in week one.
The first injury report for week five has the Vikings looking relatively clean.

Booth Jr. being limited in practice is a good sign, as is Za’Darius Smith. Against the Saints, Smith only played 25 snaps as the Vikings staff was really careful with him in coming back from a knee injury.
Cameron Dantzler being on the list is new but it shouldn’t be any kind of concern at this point. He practiced in full and didn’t miss any time against the Saints with an injury.
The report coming tomorrow will give us more clarification.
