Sustains concussion Sunday
Published: 2023-01-15
Asamoah won't return to Sunday's wild-card matchup against the Giants due to a concussion.
Asamoah was unavailable for the Vikings' Week 18 win over the Bears due to a knee injury, but he was able to suit up for Sunday's matchup. He didn't record any counting stats prior to being ruled out at halftime. It's not yet clear whether he'll be available for the NFC divisional round if the Vikings advance.

Asamoah (knee) managed to practice fully Thursday.
Asamoah suffered a knee injury in the Vikings' Week 17 loss to the Packers and was unable to play in Week 18. After improving from a limited practice Wednesday, it's likely the rookie will be able to return in some capacity for Sunday's wild-card matchup against the Giants.
Out Week 18

Asamoah (knee) is inactive for Sunday's game at Chicago, Andrew Krammer of the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports.
Asamoah sustained the injury during last week's loss to the Packers, and he'll be unavailable for the final game of the regular season. The rookie third-round pick recorded 17 tackles (11 solo) and one forced fumble in 16 games this year.
