Another day of practice for wide receiver Stefon Diggs on Tuesday makes it likely he will return to the Vikings’ lineup for Thursday night’s game against the Dallas Cowboys.
Diggs has been limited the past two days, but his participation signals the Vikings are preparing to have their top pass catcher after he missed the Thanksgiving Day loss at Detroit because of a knee injury.
Diggs leads Minnesota with 67 receptions for 747 yards. He is anxious to return against the NFL’s best team, the 10-1 Cowboys.
“They’re playing at a high level; they’ve been doing some great things,” Diggs said. “It’s all about confidence. Nobody believes in us except for us. I believe in my guys.”
