EAGAN, Minn. -- The Minnesota Vikings will likely be without safety Harrison Smith and possibly left tackle Christian Darrisaw, two of their most important players, Monday night when they take on the Chicago Bears at Soldier Field.
Smith practiced Saturday for the first time since a personal health issue sidelined him on Aug. 11, but he is listed as doubtful on the Vikings' injury report. He almost certainly needs more practice and conditioning work before he is ready to play in a game. Assuming he does not play, Smith's likely replacement is fourth-year safety Theo Jackson.
