Vikings Place QB Tarvaris Jackson On Injured Reserve With Turf Toe Injury

Discussion in 'Minnesota Vikings' started by BigBlueBruiser, Dec 16, 2010.

  1. If Brett Favre can't play Monday night against the Chicago Bears, the Minnesota Vikings won't be turning to backup Tarvaris Jackson as his replacement. The team placed Jackson on injured reserve Thursday with a turf toe injury, a league source told ESPN NFL Insider Adam Schefter. Jackson left last Monday's loss against the Giants twice with an injury, the second time because of the turf toe issue. The team reportedly has signed veteran quarterback Patrick Ramsey after working him out. Favre was feeling better Tuesday, according to coach Leslie Frazier, after his NFL-record streak of starting 297 straight regular-season games ended Monday with him on the sideline at Ford Field in Detroit during Minnesota's loss to the Giants.

    If Webb starts monday, that would be three. (Tyler Thigpen and Drew Stanton are the other two) It is what it is though, nothing the Bears can do about it but play whats put in front of them.

    Joe is also more athletic than the other 2.....I"m just saying, I know it's his first start, but he'll make some plays.
