The gameday inactive list for Week 10 brought mostly good news for the Green Bay Packers on Sunday morning.

While linebacker Zaire Franklin (shin) will miss his fourth straight game, center Sean Rhyan will miss a third straight game and veteran right guard Kevin Zeitler is out due to ankle and triceps injuries, the Packers will be at near strength at defense. Safety Xavier McKinney, slot cornerback Javon Bullard and edge rusher Lukas Van Ness, who were listed as questionable to play, are all active.

The Packers are also returning running back Chris Brooks and receiver/returner Skyy Moore from injured reserve.

The Vikings, meanwhile, will be without receivers Jordan Addison and Jauan Jennings and tight end T.J. Hockenson, robbing quarterback Kirk

Cousins of three top targets in the passing game. And Brian Flores' defense won't have Blake Cashman, who is having an excellent season, and starting defensive lineman Tyrion Dawkins-Ingram.

Despite having 12 players with status designations on the final injury report, the Packers were able to have two healthy scratches on the gameday inactive list: running back Pierre Strong Jr. and offensive lineman Donovan Jennings. The Packers will go with Kaleb Johnson, Chris Brooks and MarShawn Lloyd at running back with Josh Jacobs out.
