Strong safety Andrew Sendejo was the surprise non-participant during the open portion of today's practice. He wasn't on Wednesday's injury report. We'll have an explanation for his absence when the Vikings issue today's official injury report after practice.

Also not practicing were Alex Boone, Adrian Peterson, Stefon Diggs and Laquon Treadwell, who did have a helmet and was running off to the side after going through warmups. None of those guys practiced Wednesday.

Everyone else was practicing. The injury report will say whether they were limited or full participants.
