The Minnesota Vikings initial belief is that their tight-end Irv Smith suffered a high-ankle sprain during the team's 34-26 win over the Cardinals.
Initial belief is #Vikings TE Irv Smith suffered a high ankle sprain in Sunday’s win over Arizona, per sources. Team still sorting out timeline but he could miss some game action.

Smith will undergo further testing including an MRI on Monday, but if it is indeed a high-ankle sprain then the tight-end will be forced to miss time.
If Smith does miss time, Jacob Hollister and Johnny Mundt could see their roles increased and see more playing time at the tight-end position.
Smith has three straight games with exactly four catches. Through Week 8, Smith has 22 catches for 168 yards and two touchdowns on 33 targets.
