In about eight hours or so, the Minnesota Vikings will take to the field at U.S. Bank Stadium to host the Chicago Bears on Monday Night Football. As expected, it appears that they will do so without the reigning Offensive Player of the Year.
Per numerous reports, the Vikings will not move wide receiver Justin Jefferson to their active roster ahead of tonight’s contest. They have until 3:00 PM Central time to change their mind on that, but all indications are that they’ll play their seventh game without the star wideout.
Jefferson hasn’t played since the Vikings’ loss to Kansas City in Week 5, and the Vikings have managed to go 5-1 in his absence.
