The Los Angeles Rams and the Minnesota Vikings were keeping their fingers crossed that two key members of their teams would be able to play when they faced each other Thursday night.
Rams cornerback Marcus Peters (calf) and Vikings running back Dalvin Cook (hamstring) were listed as questionable for TNF airing on FOX, NFL Network and streaming on Amazon Prime Video.
Despite being listed as questionable, Peters is likely out two to four weeks, NFL Network Insider Ian Rapoport reported earlier in the week.
Cook missed Sunday's blowout loss to the Buffalo Bills because of a hamstring injury. Coach Mike Zimmer said on Tuesday there is a "possibility" he plays. Latavius Murray will pick up the carries if Cook can't play.
Peters suffered a strained calf in Sunday's win over the Los Angeles Chargers. The Rams just placed Aqib Talib on injured reserve -- who is scheduled to undergo ankle surgery Thursday.
Without Peters and Talib, the Rams' depth at the cornerback position will be tested. Los Angeles currently has cornerbacks Sam Shields, Nickell Robey-Coleman and Troy Hill on the active roster.
