LANDOVER — The Washington Redskins will be without tight end Jordan Reed on Sunday against the Minnesota Vikings, but they will have their regular starting offensive line back.
Left tackle Trent Williams, left guard Shawn Lauvao, center Spencer Long, right guard Brandon Scherff and right tackle Morgan Moses are all active after being listed as questionable. Williams returns to the Redskins after missing the last two games with knee soreness.
Wide receiver Jamison Crowder is also active after missing last week’s game in Seattle with a hamstring injury.
Reed will miss his second straight game with a hamstring injury. He did not practice on Friday after being limited on Wednesday and Thursday.
Backup tackle Ty Nsekhe will also be active for the first time since Week 3 against the Oakland Raiders.
The following Redskins are inactive:
Reed (hamstring)
Safety Montae Nicholson (shoulder)
Offensive lineman Tony Bergstrom (healthy)
Wide receiver Brian Quick (concussion)
Tight end Niles Paul (concussion)
Defensive lineman Matt Ioannidis (fractured hand)
Guard Arie Kouandjio (healthy)
Meanwhile, the Redskins caught a break as Vikings defensive end Everson Griffen, who is third in the league in sacks, was announced out for Sunday’s game with a foot injury.
