    Minnesota Vikings coach Leslie Frazier said an MRI on Christian Ponder's dislocated left shoulder revealed "no surprises," and Ponder's availability for the club's Nov. 17 game against the Seattle Seahawks will depend solely on how quickly the quarterback heals.

    Ponder dislocated his shoulder on a 13-yard run in the Vikings' 34-27 win over the Washington Redskins on Thursday night. On the play, which was initially ruled a touchdown, Ponder got hit from his right and his left arm hit the ground as he stretched for the pylon. He came off the field holding his left arm and went to the locker room after a quick conversation with the Vikings' medical staff about whether he could go back into the game.
