Vikings WR Diggs returns to practice


Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Stefon Diggs returned to practice Thursday after he was out a day earlier.

Diggs missed Wednesday’s practice with a hamstring strain.

The Vikings are hopeful Diggs will be on the field for Sunday’s regular-season opener with the Atlanta Falcons in Minneapolis.

The 25-year-old caught 102 passes for 1,021 yards and nine touchdowns — all career highs — in 15 games last season.
