Max Brosmer — Out
Brosmer remains the emergency reserve quarterback behind Kyler Murray and Carson Wentz. Brosmer will only enter the game if both Murray and Wentz must depart due to injury, illness or ejection.
Demond Claiborne — Out
Claiborne is a healthy scratch for Week 7 due to the return of Jordan Mason, who's been activated from injured reserve after completing his recovery from a thumb injury. Clairborne may have an uphill battle for active status moving forward as long as both Jones and Mason are available.

Jordan Mason — Injured Reserve
Since he was designated to return from injured reserve Monday, Mason has been listed as full on three straight practice reports, but the Vikings will err on the side of caution, especially because they still must activate him by Saturday afternoon for the running back to have a chance to play Sunday. Assuming that comes to pass, Mason will rejoin Aaron Jones in the backfield, likely in a timeshare as they did in 2025 and in Week 1 before the former suffered a small fracture in his thumb that required surgery.
Jordan Mason — Injured Reserve
With back-to-back uncapped sessions under his belt so far this week, Mason appears to be putting himself in a position to be activated from injured reserve ahead of Sunday's contest versus the Colts. He's seeking his first game action since Week 1, when he suffered a small fracture in his thumb that required surgery. If he's able to return this weekend, Mason likely will resume a timeshare with Aaron Jones out of the Vikings backfield.
Jordan Mason — Injured Reserve
The Vikings designated Mason for return from IR on Monday, and two days later he was uninhibited on the practice field. He's seeking his first game action since Week 1, after which he underwent surgery on a small fracture in his thumb. The team will need to activate Mason by Saturday afternoon in order for him to have a chance to play Sunday against the Colts, but a full practice Wednesday puts him on pace to be involved in such a transaction.
Jordan Mason — Injured Reserve
The Vikings designated Mason to return from injured reserve Monday after he missed the team's previous four games due to a small fracture in his thumb that required surgery. His activity level Wednesday will serve as his baseline for Week 7 prep, but per Kevin Seifert of ESPN.com, the team is optimistic that Mason will do enough this week to be activated ahead of Sunday's contest against the Colts.
Jordan Mason — Injured Reserve
Minnesota will open Mason's 21-day practice window Monday after the running back missed the team's last four games while recovering from thumb surgery. Per Kevin Seifert of ESPN.com, the Vikings have optimism that Mason will be able to play Sunday against the Colts, though his availability may hinge on how he looks from a conditioning standpoint during practices after a month-long layoff from action. Once he's fully ramped up, Mason should settle back in as the Vikings' top ball carrier on earlier downs, allowing Aaron Jones to slide back into more of a change-of-pace role.
Jordan Mason — Injured Reserve
Mason has already missed the required four games after landing on injured reserve following the Vikings' season-opening win over the Packers, and he'll get additional time to recover from thumb surgery while the team is on bye Week 6. Assuming that Mason's thumb has healed as expected following the five-week absence, he'll likely be designated for return from IR and resume practicing coming out of the bye. Aaron Jones has shouldered the load out of the Minnesota backfield over the past four games, but Mason should reclaim the bulk of the snaps on early downs once he's reinstated from IR.

Max Brosmer — Out
Brosmer joined the Vikings' 53-man roster in early October after the team traded away J.J. McCarthy. The 25-year-old is not available to play against the Saints unless both Kyler Murray and Carson Wentz are taken out of the game due to an injury, illness or ejection.
Odell Beckham Jr. — Out
Only four days removed from the Vikings signing Beckham to the practice squad and elevating him ahead of Week 5 action, he'll be a healthy scratch in his first chance to contribute to Minnesota's offense. With Jordan Addison (hamstring) also inactive Sunday, the team's available wide receivers Sunday will be Justin Jefferson (ankle), Jauan Jennings, Tai Felton, Myles Price and Jeshaun Jones.
