Foot problem limits play for Vikings' TE

MANKATO, Minn. (AP) -- Minnesota Vikings tight end Jim Kleinsasser will miss the next two weeks of training camp with soreness in his right foot caused by plantar fasciitis.
The injury -- inflammation of the tissue that connects the heel bone to the base of the toes -- is not considered serious. Coach Mike Tice said Kleinsasser would be able to play if it were the regular season. One of the Vikings' best blockers, Kleinsasser saw a foot specialist Thursday and was advised that rest was the best option for treatment.
Also, a cast will be kept on running back Michael Bennett's injured left foot two weeks longer than originally planned -- until the end of the month.
Bennett said he's still on a rehabilitation timetable for returning to action in mid-October, but the team wants to be cautious since there's a chance he could miss the entire season.
