Vikings still without WR Stefon Diggs

Oct 17, 2016

As the Minnesota Vikings returned from their bye week for a light practice on Monday, they were still without their top receiver.

\Stefon Diggs, who did not play on Oct. 9 against Houston because of a groin injury, was held out again on Monday. He left after stretching with the team at the start of practice.

Fantasy Impact:

The Vikings won't begin formal preparations for the Philadelphia Eagles until they practice Wednesday, and Diggs' participation later this week will be a better indicator of whether he's ready to return for Sunday's game. The Vikings weren't likely to take many chances with recovering players on Monday, and they won't issue the first injury report of the week until after Wednesday's practice.

“I will be playing on Sunday. Very excited, can’t pass up playing the Packers. I will be out there for sure.”

George Kittle says he’s good to go for Sunday

Related Players: Eric Saubert

Fantasy Impact:

Kittle returns to a great matchup against a Packers defense that ranks 26th in TE aFPA. He should be fired up as a high-end TE1 once again.

Per Bears head coach Matt Eberflus: Ryan Bates remains in the concussion protocol. Elijah Hicks (ankle) and D'Andre Swift (groin) won't practice.

Teven Jenkins will be limited.

Related Players: Roschon Johnson, Travis Homer

Fantasy Impact:

This is definitely a situation to keep an eye on, as Johnson would have a huge workload if Swift were to miss Week 12. Homer has three rush attempts and zero targets on the year.
