The Minnesota Vikings cornerback Antoine Winfield told reporters Friday that he will not be able to play for his team this Sunday as he has to take care of his injured right foot.
“I’ve been out the last couple of days running on it, testing it,” Winfield said on Friday. “It’s good going forward but I still have a little problem cutting. But I would say next week I should be OK.”
Having missed the last two games, the Pro Bowler has been expected to be available for playing against the Detroit Lions this weekend. And he did wear his Vikings jersey and practice in full gear all week but just still feels pain when he plants on the foot, which seems not ready to support him for playing a full game.
He is still happy that he can sit out to see Vikings win the last game against the Green Bay Packers. As for next week’s game against the Seattle Seahawks, Winfield would not like to promise he will be able to play as he does not want to take the risk of being further injured by rushing back and missing even more games.
