A report earlier this week sounded confident in Marion Barber’s status for Sunday’s game, but Cowboys coach Wade Phillips doesn’t sound so sure.

“If there’s any way he can play in the game I think he will,” Phillips said. “And I think he’s better, so we’ll see tomorrow as far as practice is concerned.”

Barber, who grew up and played college in Minnesota, was the only Cowboys player to miss practice Wednesday.

Tackle Marc Colombo (ankle), safety Gerald Sensabaugh (thumb), linebacker DeMarcus Ware (wrist, back), and safety Pat Watkins (knee) all had full participation.

Six Vikings were limited in practice: Guard Steve Hutchinson (shoulder), defensive tackle Jimmy Kennedy (thumb), punter Chris Kluwe (back), tight end Visanthe Shiancoe (quadricep), defensive tackle Pat Williams (elbow), and cornerback Antoine Winfield (foot).

All of the Vikings are expected to play.
