The Vikings will have two of their key players active today against the Baltimore Ravens after missing some practice time this week. Both right tackle Phil Loadholt and wide receiver Percy Harvin are active.

The Vikings will have their full complement of starters, with the exception of punt returner Darius Reynaud.

Wide receiver Percy Harvin (shoulder) and tackle Phil Loadholt (ankle) are both active. Harvin did not practice on Wednesday and was limited on Thursday and Friday.

Loadholt was inactive against the St. Louis Rams because of an ankle injury and was limited in practice throughout the week. Artis Hicks started in Loadholt’s right tackle position last week.

Inactive for the Vikings are Sage Rosenfels (third QB), CB Asher Allen, RB Albert Young, LB Erin Henderson, C Jon Cooper, Reynaud, DE Jayme Mitchell and DT Letroy Guion.

For the Ravens, starting left tackle Jared Gaither is inactive. Gaither didn’t participate in practice all week because of a neck injury. Right tackle Michael Oher will move to left tackle, like he did last week, and Marshal Yanda will start at right tackle again.

John Beck (third QB), WR David Tyree, RB Laen Parmele, T Oniel Cousins, T Jared Gaither, NT Kelly Talavou and LB/DE Paul Kruger are also inactive for the Ravens.
