EAGAN, Minn. — Receivers Jordan Addison and Jalen Nailor on Friday were upgraded to fully participating in practice.
Each had been listed as a limited participant on Wednesday and Thursday because of ankle injuries.
Vikings Head Coach Kevin O'Connell said both are expected to be available when Minnesota visits the New York Giants at noon (CT) Sunday to open the 2024 regular season.
Addison suffered his injury during the first of two joint practices at Cleveland. Nailor suffered his injury during a subsequent practice.
Minnesota on Friday added safety Harrison Smith and Stephon Gilmore to the injury report because of rest days offered to the veterans who are embarking on their 13th NFL seasons.
