@christomasson Everson griffen just met with mefis says he feels fine will practice today play Sunday
@christomasson Everson griffen wouldn't disclose his medical situation said felt bad Sunday morning went to hospital
@GoesslingESPN Sounds like things checked out pretty quickly. Heart tests were "precautionary," as we reported last night: http://es.pn/1W6xFrs
@Andrew_Krammer Everson Griffen said medical issues came suddenly on Sunday, called it a "scary situation," adding he went to Hennepin hospital then home
@christomasson Everson griffen said he has no doubts he will be 100 percent Sunday and have no lingering effects

Good news with Griffen. WTF Floyd? Didn't he finish the game last week? No participation all week would point to him sitting this week, which would be a blow to the line as he's been pretty beastly this season. Floyd has had issues staying healthy, though. Grrrrrrrrr
@markcraignfl Everson Griffen practicing and looks good. Floyd and Trattou not practicing
@Andrew_Krammer John Sullivan not at #Vikings practice. He's eligible to return this week while on IR to return. Had back surgery on Sept. 9.
‏@christomasson Sharrif Floyd hasn't practiced all week. Will be interesting to see if there's a chance he can go Sunday or if Tom Johnson gets the call.

It would, but Tom Johnson is a pretty solid backup.

True, but it weakens the rotation and Stephen just went on IR so they're getting a little thin at DT. Plus, Floyd's been playing well and I want him to stay healthy!

@GoesslingESPN Sharrif Floyd wasn't able to do anything again today. Mike Zimmer said he could play without much practice, but isn't sure about him for Sun

Andrew Krammer ‏@Andrew_Krammer 1h1 hour ago
Adrian Peterson is still expected to play Sunday at Ford Field despite now being listed as questionable due to an illness.
Matt VenselVerified account ‏@mattvensel 38m38 minutes ago
I'm told Adrian Peterson is still likely to play tomorrow despite the illness. That's assuming things don't take a turn for the worse.
Ben Goessling ‏@GoesslingESPN 19m19 minutes ago
Those who know Adrian Peterson well have little doubt he'll play tomorrow. "Adrian is Adrian," one person close to him said.
Matt Vensel ‏@mattvensel 3m3 minutes ago
Matt Vensel Retweeted Access Vikings
Blog updated to reflect that Peterson is likely to suit up. #Vikings
The beat reporters still seem to expect him to play.

Anybody have any information on Thielen? I believe Wright's injury was a concussion but I didn't see what Thielen's was. He was down for awhile. Was he able to walk off under his own power? The telecast cut away and I never heard.

Andrew Krammer ‏@Andrew_Krammer

John Sullivan had a setback in the weight room, and had another procedure, per Zimmer. "We dont know when he'll be back or if he'll be back"
Andrew Krammer ‏@Andrew_Krammer

Zimmer said chance are "minimal" they will get Sullivan back in 2015 ... A continued blow to #Vikings' O-line
