Vikings Depth Chart Ahead of Week 13 at Lions
The Minnesota Vikings are seven-point favorites on the road versus the Detroit Lions in Week 13.
A win over the Lions will slightly restore fans’ hope that 2021 is not a lost season. At 5-6 through 11 games, the tell-all season could go either way, tumbling into obscurity — or the Vikings getting hot for a playoff push inside a weird NFL season peppered with parity.
Also, here is the injury report — no Dalvin Cook, Christian Darrisaw, Eric Kendricks, or Camryn Bynum, Anthony Barr, and Mackensie Alexander are questionable.

In addition, the Vikings will notably be without the services of Danielle Hunter, Everson Griffen, and Irv Smith Jr. Because of COVID, Patrick Peterson is also likely to miss Week 13, although head coach Mike Zimmer will not totally confirm.
