Game Summary:
The Vikings had an absolutely dominating day against the Lions. The defense now seems to have awaken and seem to know what they are doing. Only injured starter left on the defense is Andrew Sendejo who could return after the bye week. It is looking up right now.

Injury Report
Dalvin Cook did return to the field Sunday and is looking much improved. Andrew Sendejo was the only player on defense that was out on Sunday.

Up Next
Now the Vikings have their bye. After the bye they will travel to Chicago to play the Bears on Sunday Night Football (flexed). Kickoff is at 7:30 PM CDT.

​SKOL Vikings!
