The Devil whispered in the Viking's ear, "There's a storm coming." The Viking replied, "I am the storm." ‪#‎SKOL2018

Per Doctor David Chao (@ProFootballDoc on Twitter), it's likely a subchondral and not traditional break, which means he has a chance to return for the playoffs if that's confirmed. I don't know what subchondral means or how that's different than a traditional break but apparently it is.

@christomasson #Vikings safety Andrew Sendejo was at the walkthrough today wearing a sleeve on his left knee. Was hurt Sunday at Atlanta.

@mattvensel Mike Zimmer on whether there's a chance Harrison Smith could play Sunday: "There's a chance that if I lose 100 pounds, I could be a jockey."
‏@Andrew_Krammer Credit Zim -- He's getting creative to start his fifth straight month of shooting down injury questions.

@Andrew_Krammer Harrison Smith, who practiced today, said he expects to know by Friday whether or not his sprained knee is healed enough to play.

@christomasson Anthony Barr was limited today with hand and groin injuries and Harrison Smith was limited with his hurt left knee.
Groin injury is new for Barr.
