The Minnesota Vikings continue playing through injuries, with key offensvie players Christian Ponder and Adrian Peterson battling through a hip and ankle injury, respectively to bolster the Minnesota offense. Both players will be available again this week, but they will be missing a key part of their supporting cast.
The Vikings will be short one key weapon on the offensive line which won't make things any easier on Peterson. Veteran guard Steve Hutchinson has been ruled out while recovering from concussion symptoms.
Cornerback Asher Allen will also sit out against the Redskins due to concussion symptoms. Here is the remainder of the inactive list as reported by the Vikings.
Inactives: CB Asher Allen, CB Chris Cook, LB Xavier Adibi, OL DeMarcus Love, OL Steve Hutchinson, TE Allen Reisner & DE D'Aundre Reed.
