EDEN PRAIRIE, Minn. (AP) - Minnesota Vikings cornerback Fred Smoot is expected to miss four to six weeks because of a broken right collarbone.
Smoot initially hurt his shoulder Oct. 30 at Carolina and aggravated the injury last week against Detroit - sitting out briefly before returning. The initial diagnosis was a painful but minor injury called a stinger, but coach Mike Tice said Wednesday that Smoot was found to have a fracture.
Brian Williams will replace Smoot in the starting lineup for the Vikings (3-5), who visit the New York Giants on Sunday. Ralph Brown will become the nickel back. Smoot, who left Washington and signed a six-year contract worth $34 million that included a $10.8 million bonus with Minnesota in March, has 37 tackles, one interception and a team-high 11 passes defended this year.
