Evans sitting out; Winfield taking part

Vikings defensive tackle Fred Evans wasn't on the field as the Vikings began practice today.

Vikings backup defensive tackle Fred Evans was not on the field today during the portion of practice that is open to the media. Evans was the only player who was missing.

Cornerback Antoine Winfield, who has missed the past three games because of a foot injury, took part in all the individual drills. That's a good sign for the Vikings, considering Winfield was limited even in those drills last week. Winfield is hoping to return on Sunday against the Seattle Seahawks.

We'll have more information about the injury situation after practice when we receive the first injury report of the week.
