Vikings safety Jayron Kearse was officially listed as doubtful for Saturday’s playoff game against the 49ers.
On Friday, the team announced that he has been downgraded to out as the fourth-year safety is dealing with toe and knee injuries.
The Vikings have been hit hard by the injury bug in their secondary. Cornerbacks Mike Hughes and Mackensie Alexander were both placed on the injured reserve.
The Kearse news isn’t a huge surprise. He played zero defensive snaps in Sunday’s playoff game against the snaps and just 10 special teams plays.
We can expect safety Andrew Sendejo, who played a huge role last week, to get a big opportunity again.
