The Minnesota Vikings are preparing for a potential absence of cornerback Stephon Gilmore due to a hamstring injury. In his place, veteran Fabian Moreau, who has had limited playtime this season, is expected to step up. Defensive coordinator Brian Flores has praised Moreau's performance despite some challenges against the Arizona Cardinals.

With Gilmore's status uncertain, the Vikings may rely more on Moreau and other cornerbacks like Shaq Griffin and Byron Murphy Jr. as they face the Atlanta Falcons. The team is also looking to bolster their depth with recent signings.
