Hamstrings leave Vikings hamstrung at wide receiver; Josh Doctson 'ready to go'

Next hamstring up.

In Wednesday’s tale of two Purple hammies, Adam Thielen spent practice resting while fellow receiver Josh Doctson continued testing in hopes of being activated in time to play in his hometown when the Vikings travel to Dallas on Sunday night.

“It’s 100 percent,” said Doctson, who was placed on injured reserve on Sept. 11, a week after the 26-year-old former Redskin was signed off the waiver wire. “I’m ready to go” and is eligible to return to the active roster this week.

Thielen, meanwhile, is expected to miss at least Sunday’s game after injuring the hamstring Oct.
