Kluwe, Sullivan, Winfield don't practice

Longwell was a punter in college.

Vikings punter Chris Kluwe was a surprise additiion to the injury report. He wasn't at the portion of practice that was open to the media, but was assumed to be inside practicing with K Ryan Longwell and LS Cullen Loeffler.

But the post-practice injury report revealed that Kluwe didn't practice because of a hamstring injury. We'll learn more about the seriousness of the injury tomorrow. If Kluwe couldn't punt, the team most likely would sign someone. In a pinch, Longwell was a punter in college.

Also not practicing were C John Sullivan (ankle) and CB Antoine Winfield (neck). On the injury report and practicing on a limited basis were FS Husain Abdullah, LB E.J. Henderson (knee), LT Charlie Johnson (elbow) and SS Jamarca Sanford (knee).

Not practicing for the Cardinals: P Dave Zastudil (right knee) and TE Jim Dray (pectoral).

UPDATE: The Vikings added TE Allen Reisner to their practice squad after he cleared waivers. Reisner was released Tuesday when FB Ryan D'Imperio was signed off the practice squad.
