MINNEAPOLIS — Minnesota Vikings right tackle Brian O'Neill returned to Monday night's game against the Chicago Bears after suffering a knee injury while blocking in the first quarter.

The Pro Bowl tackle went back to the locker room late in the first half, and sat out the initial drive of the second half before ultimately returning to the game on the next drive.

O'Neill was a second-round pick in 2018 out of Pittsburgh and has emerged as one of the top right tackles in the league. Minnesota lost left tackle Christian Darrisaw for the season earlier this year, and signed Cam Robinson as his replacement.
