Vikings' Anthony Barr Suffers Shoulder Injury vs. Colts; Doubtful to Return

Minnesota Vikings linebacker Anthony Barr is doubtful to return to Sunday's game vs. the Indianapolis Colts with a shoulder injury, per ESPN's Adam Schefter.

Barr remains one of the most versatile defenders in the NFL when healthy, earning four Pro Bowl selections over the past five seasons.

Though he didn't earn the honors last season, the linebacker set a new career high with 79 tackles. He added 1.5 sacks and one interception in 14 games, helping the Vikings finish fifth in the league in points allowed.

The 28-year-old has had relatively modest statistics throughout his time in the NFL, but the linebacker has provided value with his ability to make plays against the run and the pass.
