Vikings running back Matt Asiata to miss game against Packers with concussion

Published January 08, 2015

Minnesota Vikings running back Matt Asiata will miss Sunday's game against Green Bay because of a concussion.

Asiata has not yet been cleared to practice. Running back Jerick McKinnon was listed as probable to play the Packers after participating in Friday's practice on a limited basis. Recently signed veteran Ben Tate could get some time at running back.

Wide receiver Greg Jennings took part in practice for the first time this week due to a rib injury and was listed as questionable to face his former team. Also designated as questionable were defensive tackle Sharrif Floyd (knee), left tackle Matt Kalil (knee) and wide receiver Jarius Wright (hamstring).
