EAGAN, Minn. — Vikings tight end Kyle Rudolph (foot) was among four players not practicing Wednesday.
The 10-year pro has started 93 consecutive games, which leads all active tight ends by 49 (Travis Kelce, 44) or more games. The streak is the 20th longest by a Viking at any position and one game back of tying Carl Lee and Randy Moss for 18th.
Rudolph joined fellow tight end Irv Smith, Jr. (back), linebacker Eric Kendricks (calf) and running back Alexander Mattison (illness) in missing Minnesota's first practice of Week 14 ahead of Sunday's game at the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
Starting left tackle Riley Reiff (ankle), center Garrett Bradbury (abdomen) and Ezra Cleveland (ankle) were listed as limited participants along with defensive end D.J. Wonnum (ankle/back) and cornerback Jeff Gladney (calf). Cleveland returned to the lineup last week to make his fifth start at right guard.
Brett Jones (neck), who started two games in place of Cleveland, was listed as a full participant.
