There was no Adrian Peterson sighting at practice this morning, but there was a pretty important defender spotted in free safety Harrison Smith.
Smith, who has missed the past two games because of an ankle injury, was going through drills during the limited portion of practice open to the media.
We'll have the official injury report after practice.
Peterson (groin) wasn't at practice. He didn't practice Wednesday either.
Also not practicing was right guard Brandon Fusco, who missed last week's game with his second concussion of the season.
Also returning after missing Wednesday's practice were receivers Stefon Diggs (hip) and Laquon Treadwell (ankle).
