Injuries have hit the Vikings hard in the first quarter against the Denver Broncos.
First, linebacker Brian Asamoah limped off the field on his own power on a screen pass. He did return to the game on the next possession.
Shortly thereafter, two Minnesota Vikings were ruled out with injuries. T.Y. McGill (ankle) and Troy Dye (foot) both will not return.
On the second drive, safety Josh Metellus also went down with an injury. The Vikings only suited up 52 players, meaning their options at each position are limited just like a regular game.
Not what you want to see for the Vikings.
