It doesn't mean that he's a definite scratch, but odds are he is being it's the middle of the week. There's a chance he could be cleared that fast, but with a concussion, I doubt he's even flying out there with the team today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makes far too many mistakes and his ball placement is all over the place. Not that he's getting much help from the receivers, but still." yikes, that's a bad profile to have going up against a disciplined Zimmer D.

vike daddy Posted October 25, 2017 Share Posted October 25, 2017 Offensive starters Stefon Diggs and Nick Easton have both missed the past two games, but head coach Mike Zimmer sounded optimistic about their chances of returning to the lineup this week against Cleveland. Zimmer sounded equally optimistic about starting nickel cornerback Mackensie Alexander playing this week after being held out of last week’s win over Baltimore. http://www.vikings.com/news/article-1/5-Vikings-Browns-Storylines-to-Watch/f3a1fd14-1392-46d6-8c58-11895fc9073e?sf125109056=1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vikingsrule Posted October 25, 2017 Share Posted October 25, 2017 I'd probably just sit Diggs and Easton at this point. We can beat the Browns without them, why not let them rest for two more weeks? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swede700 Posted October 25, 2017 Author Share Posted October 25, 2017 Quote One of the biggest logistical nightmares for any NFL team is the preparation for the London game. The goal for any operations team in preparation for the trip to England is to make the trip feel as close as possible to a normal week for every player — an impossible goal, but one every staff strives for. http://zonecoverage.com/2017/vikings/hasan-london-game-presents-massive-logistical-problem/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vike daddy Posted October 25, 2017 Share Posted October 25, 2017 Vikings wide receiver Stefon Diggs has not played or practiced the last two weeks due to a groin injury, but he was able to get back on the field Wednesday. Andrew Krammer of the Minneapolis Star Tribunereports that Diggs had a helmet on while going through drills at Vikings practice on Wednesday. That’s a step back toward the lineup and we’ll see if he takes another one during Thursday’s practice. That practice will be held in England as the Vikings are headed there on an overnight flight to begin preparations for Sunday’s game against the Browns. They have a bye after that game, which may factor into their ultimate decision about playing Diggs against an 0-7 team this weekend. Left guard Nick Easton also practiced on Wednesday. He’s been out with a calf injury and got back on the field while left tackle Riley Reiff sat out with a knee injury. http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2017/10/25/stefon-diggs-does-drills-before-vikings-head-to-london/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SammyBradwater Posted October 25, 2017 Share Posted October 25, 2017 So, the 0-7 Browns have lost by far their best two players this week. I swear, if we find a way to lose this game... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nope, but when he is in he looks great from the slot? I honestly believe from what I have watched he is their best player on offense.... and doesn't play.

Don't think of him like a traditional RB, as they use him more in a Theo Riddick type role. He's tied for third among RBs with 43 targets so far this season, and his 32 receptions are tied for fourth among RBs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
