Vikings G Josh Kline (concussion) misses Thursday’s practice

For the second-straight day, the Vikings were without starting guard Josh Kline.

Kline suffered a concussion in Week 3 against the Raiders. If he’s unable to play on Sunday against the Bears, we’ll likely see Dakota Dozier get the start. Dozier started for Pat Elflein in Week 2 against the Packers.

We’ll get the official injury report on Friday, so we’ll see if Kline gets out of the concussion protocol.

The Vikings signed Kline to a three-year, $15.5 million deal this offseason. Per Pro Football Focus, Kline has graded as the league’s 23rd best guard out of 74 graded players. Dozier ranks 39th.
