Vikings quarterback Jaren Hall has been ruled out of Sunday's game against the New Orleans Saints after he suffered a concussion in the Falcons game, while Justin Jefferson is "questionable" after he returned to practice this week.

The Vikings' final injury report of the week also lists T.J. Hockenson, Brian Asamoah, Chris Reed and K.J. Osborn as questionable for Sunday's noon kickoff, while Dean Lowry is doubtful.

Hall's injury means the Vikings will go into the game with Joshua Dobbs as the starting quarterback with Sean Mannion as his backup.

Jefferson meanwhile has been making progress from the hamstring injury that has kept him out for the past four games, but Kevin O'Connell has said that it would be "a little aggressive" for him to play this week.
