Vikings Linebacker Suffers Leg Contusion

It's not known when the injury occurred. 

Minnesota Vikings linebacker Eric Kendricks suffered a contusion on his lower leg in Saturday's win over the Indianapolis Colts.

Eric Kendricks has a lower leg/hip contusion that could limit him this week.

With Garrett Bradbury, KOC says it's "a matter of the unique nature of lower back injuries. Sometimes it’s hard to really predict...hopefully, it’ll be a bonus for us when we can get him back in there."

Kendricks played 94 percent of the Vikings' snaps in the team's massive comeback 39-36 win over the Colts, so he was able to play through the issue.

The thirty-year-old linebacker could be limited this week with the injury, but that remains to be seen. His practice status will be worth keeping an eye on this week.

In 14 games this season, Kendricks has 119 total tackles, one sack, one fumble recovery and five passes defended.
