Vikings' Andrew DePaola: Goes on IR with hand injury

The Vikings placed DePaola (hand) on injured reserve Tuesday.

DePaola injured his hand during the Vikings' 21-13 win over the Colts. He'll be forced to miss at least the next four regular-season games, meaning the earliest he could return is Week 14 against the Falcons on Sunday, Dec. 18. The Vikings signed Jake McQuaide to serve as the long snapper in DePaola's absence.
