The Vikings will work out Case Cookus and Jackson Erdmann this week amid the ongoing quarterback situation. The three quarterbacks in COVID-19 protocols are expected to be sidelined all this week, per Chris Tomasson of the Pioneer Press. So it makes sense that the team would bring other people in.

Minnesota received a blow to its wide receiver depth when Bisi Johnson suffered an ACL tear in practice. Now, the team will have to hope that Adam Thielen, Justin Jefferson and Dede Westbrook stay healthy.
