But if you are looking for some plus news on the injury report, Michael Jurgens, Brett Thorson, and Ben Yerusale all return, and Kevin O'Connell said that Yerusale will be punting this week.
M

They released Johnny Hekker after one good week punting, one bad week punting, but two great weeks holding.

D
24:31Darren WolfsonGUEST
Otherwise, I'm looking forward to Brett Thorson coming back.
D
24:35Darren WolfsonGUEST
I mean, I think I've seen enough of Johnny Hekker punts.
P
24:37Phil MackeyHOST
[laughs]
D
24:38Darren WolfsonGUEST
I mean, I think it'll be in all likelihood just with a hamstring and why not give Thorson the bye week? You can elevate Hekker.
D
24:51Darren WolfsonGUEST
I mean, you use Hekker hopefully one more week and then you can make that transaction, right? And get Thorson back hopefully for that Colts game.

Third bullet point, Johnny Hekker sort of showed why, uh, Thorson needs to be the punter when he's healthy moving forward.
A
37:56AJ FredricksonHOST
And then fourth bullet point, oh my God, I love Will Reichard.
T
37:59Thor NystromHOST
[laughs] I mean, we could almost just end the show right, right now.
STOP! J.J. McCarthy can no longer save Kyler Murray and Minnesota Vikings offense!
R
56:22Ross BrendelHOST
I think what the Vikings have learned since the last time we talked is at least in the immediate they likely got it right.
R
56:30Ross BrendelHOST
Your guy, our guy, Johnny Hekker, likely not the guy who needs to be punting for the Minnesota Vikings.
J
56:36Jason HarmonGUEST
Brett Thorson, very, that's a good one too.
R

Yep.
