        Vikings QB Sam Darnold underwent an MRI on his knee that revealed no structural damage, according to Fox Sports' Jay Glazer. "He’s sore, but they are optimistic he plays against Green Bay" on Sunday, Glazer adds.

        Darnold was able to play through this injury in the Week 3 win over the Texans. We'll keep a close eye on him this week, but it sounds like he'll be available for Sunday's game against the Packers.

        If not, the Vikings would turn to QB Nick Mullens. He completed 67.6% of his passes at 8.8 yards per attempt across five appearances last year. Mullens totaled seven TDs but also eight INTs. He wouldn't be a significant downgrade from Darnold for Minnesota's pass catchers.
