Charles Johnson won’t play for Vikings vs. Denver

The Minnesota Vikings will have to face the Denver Broncos without one of their alleged top wide receivers after ruling out Charles Johnson for the game.

Johnson suffered a rib injury last week against San Diego and was unable to fully participate in practice during the week.

Wide receiver Jarius Wright was also limited in practice Friday after suffering a hand injury against the Chargers and is listed as questionable on the injury report.

So far in 2015, supposed #1 WR Johnson has caught six passes for 46 yards and zero touchdowns.
