EAGAN, Minn. (AP) — The Minnesota Vikings have placed right tackle Brian O’Neill and center Austin Schlottman on injured reserve. The move all but ends the season for two starters on the precipice of the playoffs. The Vikings also signed eight-year veteran center Greg Mancz to give them another option at a vital position. O’Neill suffered a significant calf injury and Schlottman broke his lower leg in the first quarter of Minnesota’s 41-17 loss at Green Bay on Sunday. Chris Reed replaced Schlottman and was frequently out of sync. Schlottman was already filling in for the injured Garrett Bradbury.
