Vikings updates: Akayleb Evans eyes return; defensive coach Chris Rumph leaves; QB choice to come

Vikings cornerback Akayleb Evans said Monday he expects to be "full go" and cleared to return for Sunday's game in Las Vegas.

Evans, who started the first 10 games, has missed two games because of a right calf strain he suffered in the 27-19 Nov. 12 victory over the Saints. Coming off three weeks of recovery including the bye week, Evans ran through drills at the start of Monday's walkthrough.

"It's the best it has felt since I hurt it," Evans said. "Feeling real good and confident."

Receiver Justin Jefferson, whom coach Kevin O'Connell previously said will return from a seven-game absence on Sunday, also ran through drills in front of reporters.
