Vikings rule Bullard out, list 3 starters as questionable

The Minnesota Vikings will be without at least one starter for Sunday’s game in Detroit but could be without up to three others.

Friday, the team ruled out defensive lineman Jonathan Bullard and listed center Garrett Bradbury, left tackle Christian Darrisaw and safety Harrison Smith all as questionable.

Bullard missed practice all week due to a bicep injury while Bradbury, Darrisaw and Smith were all limited due to a back injury, concussion and illness, respectively.

The good news for Minnesota is several others who dealt with an illness this week — including Patrick Peterson, Danielle Hunter, C.J. Ham and Theo Jackson — appear on track to play Sunday.

With a win Sunday in Detroit, the Vikings would officially clinch the NFC North.
