The Vikings' latest injury report comes with good news at right guard, bad news on rookie D.J. Wonnum who is turning heads, and one giant All-Pro addition in middle linebacker Eric Kendricks.
Kendricks, who has posted a career-high three interceptions for one season in the past four games, showed up on Thursday's injury report as limited because of a calf injury. He wasn't listed on Wednesday's injury report.
Kendricks hasn't missed a game because of injury since 2018.
Meanwhile, offensive coordinator Gary Kubiak said the Vikings split reps at right guard between Ezra Cleveland, who was limited again because of an ankle injury, and Brett Jones, who was upgraded to full participation after being limited with a neck injury on Wednesday.
"Ezra had a good day today," Kubiak said. "We worked both he and Jonesey. We'll see when we get to game day. It sure looks like Ezra has a chance to be back in full force this week. Let's see what happens. It's sure nice to see him back moving around today. I trust them both."
Cleveland, the rookie second-round draft pick, helped stabilize the offensive line during the team's three-game win streak last month. With him sidelined the past two weeks, the Vikings went 1-1 with Jones at right guard.
Wonnum, the surprising rookie with three sacks, eight quarterback hits and a blocked field goal attempt, missed another practice Thursday because of ankle and back injuries. If he doesn't practice Friday, he's unlikely to play Sunday against the Jaguars.
Also missing practice for the second straight day was tight end Irv Smith Jr. (back). Running back Dalvin Cook (ankle) was limited again as the Vikings look to reduce his workload.
