On the injury front, rookie safety Jakobe Thomas (back) appeared to be a full-go during Monday’s practice. Fellow safety Theo Jackson (undisclosed injury) was not out on the field after going down briefly last Thursday in the joint practice with Baltimore.

The Vikings will practice again on Tuesday and Wednesday before their preseason finale Friday night in Denver. The Vikings will have their initial 53-man roster this time next week.
