Vikings (finally) place DT Michael Pierce on injured reserve

The Minnesota Vikings have been without big defensive tackle Michael Pierce because of an elbow injury since Week 5. With a move they made on Saturday, they’re going to be without him for several more weeks as well.

The Vikings have finally placed Pierce on their injured reserve list, meaning that he will miss the last three games and will not be able to suit up for the Vikings until Week 13 at the earliest.

Pierce suffered the injury back in September and aggravated the injury against the Cleveland Browns in Week 4.
