The Minnesota Vikings released their inactives for Sunday’s game against the New Orleans Saints.
- S Lewis Cine
- QB Jaren Hall
- WR K.J. Osborn
- ILB Brian Asamoah II
- TE Nick Muse
- OL Hakeem Adeniji
- DE Dean Lowry
No major surprises on the inactive list. Hall was already ruled out and Lowry was doubtful. Osborn was ruled out earlier Sunday morning and won’t attend the game either. The Vikings are playing it smart with Osborn.
Asamoah was questionable but was likely to be out once the Vikings added Nick Vigil to the active roster on Saturday morning.
The big one here is Cine, who is inactive for the sixth time this season. Two of those games were due to the hamstring injury he suffered and he has yet to play a single defensive snap this season. Why is he not playing even special teams? Well, it’s likely that Jay Ward is just better at special teams.
The good part about the inactive list is that Jalen Nailor isn’t included. He will make his season debut after sitting out for the better part of four months with a hamstring injury.
The game kicks off at noon central.
