Both Jamaal Williams and D’Andre Swift are listed as questionable, with Williams dealing with a hip injury and Swift still getting extra rest with a groin injury. They both were able to practice the last two days and there doesn’t seem to be any concern with either missing the game versus the Vikings.

Questionable:
OT Penei Sewell (ankle)
TE T.J. Hockenson (knee)
RB D’Andre Swift (groin)
RB Jamaal Williams (hip)
EDGE Trey Flowers (knee)
Not listed with an injury designation:
DT Michael Brockers (shoulder) https://t.co/ScIvx1ljC6
Williams and Swift split work enough to hurt each other in fantasy. There is a good chance that one finds the end zone to boost their numbers, but we just aren’t going to see enough consistent touches to feel great starting either as a RB2 for now.
Fantasy football implications
The Vikings are allowing 4.8 yards per rushing attempt and both of these players have flex appeal in this game.
