Linebacker Eric Kendricks will play for the Vikings against the Falcons on Sunday.

Kendricks, second on the defense playing 98 percent of snaps, was questionable due to a hip injury that kept him out of one practice this week. He will play after being limited on Thursday and Friday.

Right tackle Mike Remmers (low back) will miss his fourth straight game, and first since suffering a back injury during practice on Wednesday. He was sidelined three games due to a concussion.

Vikings' inactives: Remmers, QB Sloter, OT Collins, DL Johnson, WR Coley, RB Brown and DE Bower.

The Falcons will be without two top cornerbacks in Desmond Trufant (concussion) and Brian Poole (back).

Falcons' inactives: WR Williams, CB Trufant, RB Magee, CB Poole, LB Weatherspoon, OL Harlow and OL Pasztor.
