The Minnesota Vikings found themselves in trouble in the opening minutes of their Sunday game against the New York Giants. Aaron Jones and Jordan Mason suffered ankle injuries on the first possession and are questionable to return. With them gone, Zavier Scott is Minnesota's top RB.

Latest injury update

Aaron Jones left the game after injuring his ankle and was taken to the locker room for further evaluation. He was later listed as questionable to return.

Jones initially entered the blue medical tent and was then seen jogging along the sideline as he attempted to test the injury before the team made a decision on his status.

Compounding the situation for Minnesota, backup running back Jordan Mason also went down with an ankle injury shortly after Jones exited. Mason was eventually carted off the field and taken to the locker room, leaving the Vikings thin at the position.
