Vikings roundup: Vikings activate Dalvin Tomlinson off Reserve/COVID-19 list

The Detroit Lions (0-10-1) are set to face the Minnesota Vikings (5-6) for the second time this season, this time at Ford Field.

The Lions are coming off another loss on a walk-off field goal and the Vikings are also coming off a Week 12 loss, which has dropped them out of a playoff spot.
