Vikings running back Adrian Peterson will miss Sunday's game against the Denver Broncos with a high ankle sprain, and receiver Percy Harvin is listed as questionable with an illness.

Both players missed Friday's practice. Peterson hasn't practiced since sustaining the injury against Oakland in Week 10.

Coach Leslie Frazier says Harvin's illness is not migraine-related, but would not dislcose the exact problem. Harvin has dealt with migraines during his career.

Also listed as questionable by the Vikings are cornerback Asher Allen (shoulder), linebacker E.J. Henderson (shoulder) and tight end Kyle Rudolph (quadriceps contusion).
