Vikings tight end Kyle Rudolph was one of five starters to missed practice in consecutive days due to injury on Thursday.
Rudolph has been sidelined with an ankle/knee injury. Left guard Charlie Johnson (ankle), nose tackle Linval Joseph (illness), rookie linebacker Anthony Barr (knee) and safety Robert Blanton (ankle/knee) also missed another practice this week. Blanton was conditioning on the side at the start of practice.
Vikings head coach Mike Zimmer wouldn't specify but expected most of these guys to participate in Friday's practice.
Defensive tackle Sharrif Floyd (knee), wide receiver Greg Jennings (hamstring) and running back Matt Asiata (foot) were all limited once again.
