Adrian Peterson

Vikings place Jerick McKinnon (back) on injured reserve

Jerick McKinnon's promising rookie season is over.

The Minnesota Vikings announced Saturday that the rookie running back has been placed on season-ending injured reserve with a nagging lower back injury.

McKinnon, a third-round draft pick out of Georgia Southern, was leading the Vikings in carries (113), rushing yards (538) and yards per carry (4.8). Among rookie backs, he ranks third in rushing yards, behind Jeremy Hill and Tre Mason.

The runner will have a procedure done on his back with a recovery time of about eight weeks, ESPN.com's Adam Caplan reported.

Fantasy Impact: 

McKinnon is still a nice dynasty/keeper value for next season given Adrian Peterson's up-in-the-air status with the Vikings. Peterson could win his appeal and be reinstated as soon as Week 15, assuming the Vikings want to welcome him back when there's not much to play for. Matt Asiata figures to continue as the lead back for now, with Ben Tate and Joe Banyard in the mix.

Vikings RB Jerick McKinnon (back, out) missed practice all week and is out for Week 14. We should see Matt Asiata lead the team in touches once again, though HC Mike Zimmer said that he expects the team will use all three running backs, including Joe Banyard and Ben Tate.

Vikings RB Jerick McKinnon (back, doubtful) missed practice all week and is doubtful for Week 13. McKinnon must have had some sort of setback with the back. He’s listed as doubtful, but he says he’s out for Sunday. Look for Matt Asiata, Joe Banyard and Ben Tate to form a committee in a pretty nice matchup with the Panthers.

Vikings RB Matt Asiata (concussion, probable) took full practice reps again Friday and is probable for Week 13. Asiata will return to the lineup and with Jerick McKinnon out, he figures to see the most touches. Joe Banyard or Ben Tate could limit Asiata’s upside.
