The Minnesota Vikings will be without starting left guard Donovan Jackson in Week 4 against the Pittsburgh Steelers, Vikings head coach Kevin O’Connell told reporters in his Monday press conference. Jackson played in Week 3 against the Bengals despite suffering a wrist injury in Week 2, but he had surgery earlier today and will miss the team’s Week 4 game.
“He suffered a wrist injury against Atlanta that was deemed to be something that would require surgery. He did have that this morning in Los Angeles as part of a planned surgery. It was determined last week that he could play in the football game [against the Bengals] and not do further harm,” O’Connell said.
