Cashman tied three other Vikings as the team's leading tackler in Sunday's win, and he also brought down Mac Jones in the second quarter for his second sack of the season.

He's expected to remain one of Minnesota's top tacklers as the Vikings travel to Tennessee in Week 12.

Cashman (toe) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Colts. Head coach Kevin O'Connell told reporters Friday that Cashman was close to returning for the Vikings' Week 9 matchup, and the team is hoping that he can play in Week 10's game against the Jaguars, per Ben Goessling of the Minneapolis Star Tribune. Expect Kamu Grugier-Hill to continue seeing increased snaps with the Vikings' first-team defense while Cashman remains sidelined Sunday.

Cashman (toe) didn't practice Wednesday. Cashman didn't play in the Vikings' last two games due to a toe injury, and Wednesday's DNP suggests he's in jeopardy of missing even more time. The Minnesota product likely needs to upgrade to at least limited participation Thursday or Friday in order to suit up for the Vikings' Week 9 matchup against the Colts.

Head coach Kevin O'Connell stated Monday that he isn't sure if Cashman (toe) will be available Thursday against the Rams, but he is positive he should return no later than Week 9, Ben Goessling of the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports. Cashman hasn't played since Week 5 due to turf toe, but he is making good progress, according to O'Connell. With the Vikings on a short week and playing the Rams on Thursday, the 28-year-old won't have much extra time to recover and prepare before the team's next matchup. A firmer stance on his status for the matchup may not come until Minnesota releases its inactive list 90 minutes before kickoff Thursday.
