We probably should have known better than to get so excited about the Minnesota Vikings clearing everyone off of their COVID-19 list when Patrick Peterson came back before the Steelers’ game last week.
The Vikings added three players to their reserve/COVID-19 list on Monday afternoon, and on Tuesday three more players joined them, including wide receiver/punt returner Dede Westrbook. The Vikings also put two members of their practice squad on the COVID-19 list, wide receiver Trishton Jackson and running back A.J. Rose Jr.
Even defensive end Danielle Hunter, who is out for the season with a torn pectoral muscle, was placed on the COVID-19 list by the team on Tuesday.
