Only one Vikings player was unable to practice less than 48 hours after the season-opening win against the Saints, albeit the absence was rather big.

Linebacker Anthony Barr is dealing with a hamstring injury that kept him from practicing Wednesday. Taking his spot during drills at strong-side linebacker was Emmanuel Lamur, who is also dealing with a hamstring injury and was limited in practice.

The injury didn't keep Barr from playing against the Saints. He was one of four Vikings defenders to play all 62 snaps on Monday night.

Quarterback Sam Bradford was also a new addition to the team's injury report. Bradford is dealing with a knee injury that also didn't prevent him from playing every snap against the Saints.

Guard Danny Isidora (knee) and cornerback Tramaine Brock (groin) were listed as full participants.

For the Steelers: DE Stephon Tuitt (biceps), T Jerald Hawkins (knee) and S J.J. Wilcox (concussion) did not practice Wednesday. LB Bud Dupree (shoulder) was limited.
