Minnesota Vikings cornerback Cameron Dantzler (ankle, personal) will be inactive for Sunday's playoff game against the New York Giants. The 24-year-old has played just two games since Week 9 and was absent from practice this past week due to a personal matter. Through 10 total contests, Dantzler logged 50 tackles, one forced fumble, and one fumble recovery. Chandon Sullivan and Kris Boyd should see more snaps in his absence.

Minnesota Vikings safety Harrison Smith (knee) and running back/kick returner Kene Nwangwu (illness) are both active for Sunday's playoff game against the New York Giants. Smith, 33, played in 13 games this regular season, logging 84 tackles, one forced fumble, and five interceptions. Meanwhile, Nwangwu registered a league-leading 35 kick returns for 920 yards (and one touchdown). Both players will look to make an impact in this pivotal win-or-go-home game for Minnesota.
