Vikings' Christian Darrisaw: Expected to return Week 15
Vikings coach Kevin O'Connell said Darrisaw (concussion) is expected to suit up Saturday versus the Colts, Carmen Vitali of Fox Sports reports.
Darrisaw sustained his second concussion of the season Week 11 versus Dallas, and he was ruled inactive for precautionary reasons ahead of Sunday's loss to Detroit even though he'd already cleared concussion protocols. The second-year left tackle return comes at a crucial time for Minnesota, as backup Blake Brandel sustained a torn MCL vesus the Lions, according to O'Connell. Darrissaw's return should help shore up a Vikings offensive line that ranks 24th in the NFL with 34 sacks given up this season.

Vikings' Christian Darrisaw: On track to sit out Week 14
Darrisaw (concussion), who is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Lions, isn't expected to play, Jordan Schultz of TheScore.com reports.
According to Ben Goessling of the Minneapolis Star Tribune, Vikings head coach Kevin O'Connell confirmed Friday that Darrisaw cleared the NFL's five-step concussion protocol, but Minnesota apparently isn't yet comfortable having the 2021 first-round pick make his return to the field. Assuming Darrisaw winds up on the inactive list ahead of the 1 p.m. ET kickoff, the Vikings are expected to turn to Blake Brandel to step in as their starting left tackle.
