Vikings elevate S Myles Dorn from practice squad for Sunday’s game

The move likely signals that the rookie first-round pick will miss Sunday’s game against the Packers

With Lewis Cine having been on the injury report the last two days, the Minnesota Vikings made the move to elevate safety Myles Dorn from the practice squad.

This doesn’t 100% confirm that Lewis Cine will be out on Sunday but it sends a strong signal that he will miss the season opener against the Green Bay Packers.

Cine has been dealing with a knee injury that he aggrevated this week. It is something that hopefully won’t impact him long term and this could likely be a precautionary measure.

Dorn had a fantastic final preseason game against the Broncos and seemingly earned himself a roster spot but they gave it to Metellus over him due to his special teams acumen. Barring something drastic, Dorn will be active against the Packers on Sunday.
