Alvin Kamara: Will play week 13| Is playing tonight| Week 13

Will play week 13:

Week 13 of the NFL is poised to have some of the biggest matchups of the season and could very well shape the playoff picture in both conferences going forward. Getting us started will be the Cowboys and Saints, who’ll open up Week 13 down in New Orleans for a matchup on Thursday night. 

Naturally, every team is a little banged up this time of year and some clubs are more beat up than others. In this space, we’ll take stock of all the injuries throughout the NFL as the bulk of teams release their first injury reports of the week as they hit the practice field.

Is playing tonight:

The Cowboys won’t have Wilson on Thursday night, but may return Cooper to the fold. He was activated from the reserve/COVID-19 list and was a limited participant in practice Wednesday. The Pro Bowl wideout is officially listed as questionable. 

The Saints are making a quarterback change, as Taysom Hill is in line to take over for the struggling Trevor Siemian, according to NFL Media’s Ian Rapoport. He was listed on the injury report with a foot injury, but was a full participant all week and did not have an injury designation.

Week 13:

The Vikings may be without star running back Dalvin Cook for a couple weeks due to his shoulder injury, and he sat out of practice Wednesday.

Joining him in missing practice were linebacker Anthony Barr (knee/hamstring), offensive tackle Christian Darrisaw (ankle), linebacker Ryan Connelly (quadriceps) and safety Camryn Bynum (ankle). Cornerback Mackensie Alexander (ribs), defensive tackle Sheldon Richardson (knee), linebacker Nick Vigil (ribs), linebacker Eric Kendricks (biceps).
