Jordan Addison

Vikings WR Jordan Addison injures ankle, not believed to be serious

Update on Jordan Addison: Injured his ankle, unlikely to practice tomorrow but Kevin O'Connell doesn’t believe it to be serious

“I think he’s going to be OK,” KOC said after practice.

Related Players: Justin Jefferson, Jalen Nailor

Fantasy Impact: 

Just brutal injury luck for the Vikings over the last couple of days. The WR depth chart is very, very thin behind Jefferson/Addison, so for the sake of a fluent offense, let's hope Addison is just fine. We'll keep an eye on it, but if Addison misses time to pair with a possible late-season suspension, he's going to be a headache for fantasy.

Sam Darnold

Vikings QB Sam Darnold has received nearly 100% of first-team reps

As the third week of camp nears an end, Sam Darnold has received all but two of the first-team reps in 11-on-11 drills. J.J. McCarthy got the other two. This should be no surprise to anyone who has listened to coach Kevin O'Connell talk about the position. While McCarthy is clearly the club's future quarterback, team leaders are in agreement that his ascension will not be rushed.

Fantasy Impact: 

Any doubts that Darnold will start the season as QB1 seem to be out the window at this point. The Vikings do have a tough opening schedule, with the 49ers, Texans, Packers, and re-vamped Jets coming before their Week 6 Bye. McCarthy could be a play by the second half of the season, so we'll see how he looks for streaming purposes if/when that time comes.

Vikings to give QB Sam Darnold majority of first-team reps when camp opens

QB Sam Darnold will take the majority of first-team snaps when camp opens, Kevin O'Connell reiterated.

Related players: J.J. McCarthy

Fantasy Impact: 

Darnold was expected to be the bridge quarterback when the team signed him and also drafted McCarthy in the first round. McCarthy should also see first-team reps, but it seems like the Vikings are sticking with Darnold as the QB1 plan, at least early on in the season.

T.J. Hockenson

Vikings place TE T.J. Hockenson (knee) on PUP list

Head Coach Kevin O'Connell announces T.J. Hockenson will be placed on the PUP list to start training camp.

Related players: Josh Oliver, Robert Tonyan

Fantasy Impact: 

This comes as no surprise. However the Vikings say Hock is well ahead of schedule at this point. Hockenson is likely to be eased back into action when he does return later in the season, and will also be dealing with another new QB at the helm. As we point out, Hockenson will be just 7 months and 10 days out from his injury at the Week 1 mark.
