Both Ham and Smith sitting out a second consecutive day looks a bit ominous, but Mike Zimmer said on Friday that both players are “headed in the right direction,” which. . .makes it even more ominous. Or maybe that’s just me.
We’ll also have to see how Dantzler does on the final injury report. He had a pretty nasty injury a couple of weeks ago but, at the very least, has moved up to limited participation in practice.
Now, on to the home team.

Again, the Bears could be missing some pretty significant players on Monday if things keep trending the way that they are.
Those are your interim injury reports for the Vikings and Bears heading into Monday Night Football. The final reports come out on Saturday afternoon, and once they drop we’ll have all the status updates for you here.
