Friday, the Minnesota Vikings released its final injury report ahead of Sunday’s matchup against the Jacksonville Jaguars.
Tight end Irv Smith Jr. (back) did not practice all week and is designated to be out Sunday. It will be second straight game Smith will miss after he suffered a back injury in Week 11.
Defensive end D.J. Wonnum (ankle/back) will also miss Sunday’s game. Wonnum was a big part of the Vikings defense’s success against the Carolina Panthers last week. The rookie fourth-round pick had suited up for six straight games before missing this week.
Running back Dalvin Cook (ankle) practiced in full on Friday and is expected to play on Sunday.
Kickoff is slated for noon at U.S. Bank Stadium. For a full look at the latest injury report, click here.
