@Andrew_Krammer As Taylor Heinicke deals with mild concussion and oblique strain, #Vikings could call Leidner back in p-squad search

Yup. When you claim someone off waivers they have to be put on active roster.

Yup. I mean they can be cut or moved to IR or whatever like any other player I guess.

I think I agree, though it's a little surprising Eric Wilson wasn't on there. Maybe over Gedeon.

@christomasson

Not practicing for #Vikings was LB Anthony Barr Was in sweats and hoodie Unclear what his injury is but we'll find out when report comes out

Lamur filled in for Barr at strong-side linebacker.
Barr injured would hurt us at the linebacker position. I feel we're not that strong there anyway.

Barr out with a hamstring.

Elijah Lee signed to 49ers.

Brock (groin) said he'll be out there Sunday.

Of course. See my avatar. Makes perfect sense.
