Vikings Depth Chart Ahead of Week 6 at Panthers

The Minnesota Vikings are 2.5-point favorites versus the Carolina Panthers at Bank of America Stadium.
A win over Carolina evens the 2021 standing at 3-3, renewing hopes for a season that seemed on the brink of collapse when the Lions scored late in the 4th quarter during Week 5.
Also, here is the injury report — no Michael Pierce or Ben Ellefson.
And last week just before the win over Detroit, Minnesota deactivated these players: Kellen Mond (QB), Dalvin Cook (RB), Ihmir Smith-Marsette (WR), Michael Pierce (NT), Wyatt Davis (G), and Patrick Jones II (DE).
Cook and Smith-Marsette should be active on Sunday.
