INJURIES
Tests positive for COVID-19 Dantzler (illness) was placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list Monday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Impact Dantzler reportedly tested positive for COVID-19, so he may not gain clearance to return in time for Sunday's upcoming match against the Lions. The second-year pro handled a season-high 92 percent of defensive snaps during Week 4's loss to the Browns.

Healthy scratch Dantzler was a healthy inactive for Sunday's loss at Cincinnati.
Impact Dantzler surprisingly fell down the depth chart in the preseason after playing a significant role in the Vikings' secondary last season and looked set to compete for a starting role. He may remain on the bench unless the secondary sufferes an injury or two.

Falling down depth chart Kris Boyd started at cornerback opposite Bashaud Breeland over Dantzler with Patrick Peterson sitting out in Saturday's preseason loss to Indianapolis.
Impact Dantzler played a significant role in the Vikings' secondary last season and looked set to compete for a starting role, but he's fallen behind Boyd on the depth chart at least in the preseason. Mackensie Alexander is likely to win the slot corner role, which means Dantzler may see limited snaps early in the season.

Secondary help: Vikings bring back Alexander, add Woods

The Minnesota Vikings have added more seasoning to their secondary by agreeing to contract terms with cornerback Mackensie Alexander and safety Xavier Woods
MARCH 29, 2021 • Associated Press
Gets competition Dantzler (hamstring) should face competition this offseason after the Vikings signed Mackensie Alexander, Naila-Jean Meyers of the Star Tribune reports.
Impact Dantzler played a significant role in the Vikings' secondary last season because Alexander and Xavier Rhodes left in free agency the previous year. As a rookie, Dantzler predictably had some struggles, but he also showed some promise, allowing a 92.8 passer rating when targeted. However, Alexander is far more experienced and should push Dantzler for a starting role in 2021.

JANUARY 1, 2021 • Associated Press
Ruled out with hamstring injury Dantzler (hamstring) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Lions.
Impact Dantzler couldn't reach the practice field in even so much as a limited capacity this week, rendering his status for the regular-season finale unsurprising. The third-round rookie started 10 of his 11 appearances for the Vikings, closing the campaign with 46 tackles, two interceptions, a forced fumble and a fumble recovery. Harrison Hand or Dylan Mabin could be pressed into more integral roles at cornerback as a result of Dantzler's first missed game since Week 10.

Managing hamstring injury Dantzler (hamstring) did not practice Thursday, Eric Smith of the Vikings' official site reports.
Impact Dantzler was forced out of last week's loss to the Saints in the third quarter. The rookie cornerback will only have one more chance to resume practicing ahead of Sunday's game against Detroit.
