It's the latest curveball to a Vikings offense that operated without running back Dalvin Cook and two reserves, quarterback Sean Mannion and tackle Rashod Hill, against the Rams on due to positive COVID tests. Udoh has started 14 games this season, mostly at right guard, where he returned against the Rams to replace the injured Mason Cole.
Udoh, who is vaccinated, will need to produce two negative tests before returning. Those tests can be taken at the same time under updated league protocols for vaccinated players. The Vikings' reserve guards on Sunday were Dakota Dozier and Wyatt Davis.
Andrew Krammer is joined by Matthew Coller of Purple Insider to discuss the Vikings offense, what they think of Justin Fields and the Bears, and they talk what's been expected and unexpected through four games.
