Minnesota Vikings outside linebacker D.J. Wonnum has a partially torn quad and will likely need surgery. Wonnum's hip flexor is intact, but he is seeking a second opinion. The Vikings are also awaiting news on tight end T.J. Hockenson, who is having an MRI on his right knee. Wonnum left Sunday's game with a non-contact injury to his left leg. He is having his best season with career highs in tackles and sacks. The Vikings may have to rely on Pat Jones II and rookie Andre Carter II for their remaining games. Hockenson took a helmet to his knee and did not return. He leads the team in catches and receiving yards this season.
