@GoesslingESPN Charles Johnson said he's hoping to be back for the KC game. Didn't think he has broken ribs, but said it's hurt him to run too fast.

If so, you wouldn't be alone. More info as it comes available.

There was a play where Teddy was under pressure and Wallace kind of pulled up as he was going toward the sideline. I remember saying to myself, "I hope he's hurt, cause otherwise I just lost a ton of respect for him". I'm guessing it was a muscle pull but that's just based on how he pulled up on the play.

Thanks for the info. Muscle pulls with his speed doesn't bode well.
Heading into KC, we could be looking at Diggs, Thielen, and Patterson as our 3-wide set.
(I understand Jarius was active against Denver, but he only had one snap. That, if anything, looks worse to me than being inactive)

@GoesslingESPN: Nothing serious for Mike Wallace, from what I hear; just a sore knee. Vikings had no reason to push it on the last practice before bye week.

@christomasson Mike Zimmer said he "can't disclose" why Mike Wallace hasn't been practicing. Will he play Sunday. "We'll see.''

After the bye week off, Wright returned to practice on Monday and said he was full-go.
“I didn’t miss a beat. I acted like it was a regular day for me,” he said.
Jarius Wright ‘definitely ready to go’ for Minnesota Vikings
Minnesota Vikings receiver Mike Wallace continued to sit out practice on Monday with what ESPN reports as a sore knee.

Josh Robinson - DB - Vikings
Vikings CB Josh Robinson (PUP, pectoral) said he will be ready to resume practicing when eligible next week.
Robinson hopes he will be able to play Week 7 against Detroit. Robinson has been sidelined since tearing his pectoral muscle in the spring.
