Vikings star receiver made a spectacular catch for a touchdown, but injured his hamstring on the play and did not return. He says it's minor and hopes to play this week, however the Vikings play on Thursday against the Redskins. Given the short week and his position, it will be difficult for him to return on Thursday. Short week games do not present more of an injury hazard, but they do present more challenges while trying to return from an injury. I would be surprised to see him fully practice this week.
