Jaire Alexander was downgraded to “Did Not Participate” on the final injury report for the Vikings game with a quad/groin injury. His inactivity on Sunday exposed weaknesses in the Packers’ secondary. Sam Darnold had all day to throw and shredded Green Bay’s secondary. The Vikings outscored the Packers 28-7 in the first half.
