Report: Vikings almost brought Terence Newman back this week

The Minnesota Vikings have a truckload of injury concerns ahead of their NFC divisional round playoff matchup with the San Francisco 49ers on Saturday. But while most people are fixated on whether Adam Thielen will have a “bloody sock” game, another major concern lies in the secondary.

The Vikings have been busy on the injury front, placing Mackensie Alexander and Mike Hughes on injured reserve in consecutive weeks. With Jayron Kearse also ruled out due to toe and knee injuries, Minnesota ended up activating Nate Meadors from the practice squad late this week.
