Barr is set to play Sunday against the Lions. A persistent knee injury has prevented him from playing since Week Two of the 2020 season.

Cook continues to push through a nagging ankle ailment which has bothered him the last several weeks.

Both teams are desperate for wins as the Vikings (1-3) host the Lions (0-4) Sunday in the last of a rare three-game stretch of home games at U.S. Bank Stadium.
