3 years agoMinnesota Vikings linebacker Anthony Barr (hamstring) said he is playing on Thursday night in Week 14 against the Pittsburgh Steelers after tweaking his hamstring in Week 12 and sitting out the Week 13 loss to the Detroit Lions. Injuries have been a huge problem for Barr, who has played in just eight of 23 games the last two years. The 29-year-old was a full practice participant on Tuesday, so barring a setback, he should be active to kick off Week 14 action. Barr has 32 tackles (16 solo), two QB hits, one interception, one fumble recovery and half a sack in six games played this year, and his return will be good news for a Vikings defense looking to keep rookie running back Najee Harris in check.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller
