CAMERON DANTZLER NEWS

Listed as questionable The Vikings have listed Dantzler (concussion) as questionable ahead of Monday's matchup with the Bears, Chris Tomasson of the St. Paul Pioneer Press reports.

Impact Dantzler left the field on a stretcher two weeks ago, so his progress up to this point is certainly good news. Still, he will need to clear concussion protocol in order to suit up. If he is ultimately unable to go, look for Kris Boyd and Harrison Hand to see increased workloads.

Ruled out for Week 9 Dantzler (concussion) won't play Sunday against the Lions, Andrew Krammer of the Star Tribune reports.

Impact A possible silver lining here is that Dantzler is only being listed with a concussion after previously having a neck injury as well, though that doesn't necessarily mean the neck injury he sustained in last week's win over Green Bay is no longer a factor. Dantzler will still need to pass concussion protocol before he can get back on the field, and his next opportunity to do so will be prior to a Week 10 trip to Chicago.

Can't practice again Thursday Dantzler (neck/concussion) did not participate during Thursday's practice session.

Impact Coach Mike Zimmer was optimistic regarding Dantzler's status Monday, stating that the third-round rookie was "doing well" after being carted off the field with a neck injury Sunday against Green Bay. With back-to-back DNPs in practice Wednesday and Thursday, however, the likelihood of Dantzler being active Week 9 against the Lions becomes slimmer. He must also clear the NFL's concussion protocol. Second-year man Kris Boyd (leg) would be thrust into a more vital role if Dantzler were to be unavailable for the upcoming divisional tilt.

Not yet ruled out for Week 9 Coach Mike Zimmer said Dantzler (neck/concussion) is "doing well" and has "a chance to play" Sunday against the Lions.

Impact The 22-year-old was transported to a local hospital after being stretched off the field with a neck injury Sunday against the Packers, but it appears he avoided any serious issues. Dantzler's X-rays apparently came back clean, though it's unclear if he cleared the concussion testing. The rookie's participation at practice later this week should provide a better idea of his potential availability this weekend.

Expected to travel with team Coach Mike Zimmer said Sunday that Dantzler (neck) is expected to join the team in travelling back to Minnesota, Courtney Cronin of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Dantzler had to be transported to a local hospital after suffering a neck injury during Sunday's 28-22 win over Green Bay, and he was also evaluated for a concussion. The rookie third-round pick lay motionless for a time Sunday, but he's now regained full movement of his body. The exact severity of Dantzler's injury remains undisclosed, but it would certainly be a good sign if he's able to avoid overnight hospitalization.
