Vikings' Nick Mullens: Back in action Sunday
Mullens (back) is listed as active Sunday in Denver.
Mullens spent the past five games on injured reserve, a span in which the Vikings' quarterback room experienced significant turnover. Kirk Cousins suffered a season-ending torn Achilles in Week 8, Jaren Hall started for him Week 9 and suffered a concussion almost immediately, and recent addition Joshua Dobbs stepped in and led an improbable win against the Falcons. Dobbs is starting a second straight contest Sunday, but Mullens will return as his backup with Hall still in the protocol for head injuries.

Vikings' Nick Mullens: Activated Saturday
Mullens (back) was activated from IR to Minnesota's 53-man roster Saturday.
Mullens had previously been sidelined for Minnesota's last five games with back stiffness. The 28-year-old quarterback is still listed as questionable for Sunday's contest, but now that he's been activated to the Vikings' active roster, he will likely serve as the team's top backup quarterback behind Joshua Dobbs in Week 11.

Vikings' Nick Mullens: Questionable for Sunday at Denver
Mullens (back) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game at the Broncos.
Coach Kevin O'Connell said Friday that he is optimistic Mullens will be able to serve as the primary backup to Joshua Dobbs in Week 11, Kevin Seifert of ESPN.com reports. With rookie fifth-rounder Jaren Hall (concussion) already ruled out for Sunday's contest, Mullens currently figures to serve as the Vikings' signal caller should anything happen to Dobbs.

Mullens will now have a 21-day window to practice with the team before needing to be added to the 53-man roster, although he could be added to it at anytime, including before Sunday's game against the Broncos. Once activated, he will likely serve as the backup to Joshua Dobbs.

Vikings' Nick Mullens: Nearing return
Mullens could be designated to return from IR this week according to head coach Kevin O'Connell, Ben Goessling of the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports.
Mullens will have a 21-day window to practice with the team before needing to be added to the active roster if he is designated to return. However, O'Connell is not certain they'll open that window this week. Either way, Joshua Dobbs will likely get the start in Week 10 against the Saints, even if Mullens is activated ahead of the contest.
