The Minnesota Vikings have had pretty good luck with injuries thus far. They have only had four games lost due to injuries in the first three weeks and have only had four on a single injury report just one time.
Compared to what the Vikings have had to deal with in past years, their injury luck has been relatively solid. Going into week four against the New Orleans Saints, things are a little more complicated than that.
For the first time, there are six players on the injury report for the first time.

Last weeks final injury report is also on here with Eric Kendricks and Harrison Smith both practicing in full while Andrew Booth Jr. still not practicing with his quad injury.
The new additions aren’t much of a surprise Dalvin Cook and Za’Darius Smith both got injured in Sunday’s game against the Detroit Lions and holding them out of practice is definitely a precaution.
The one that is somewhat of a surprise is C.J. Ham not practicing with a foot injury. With this being the first mention of an injury, there shouldn’t be any reason to be concerned. It is worth monitoring as the week goes on.
