Addison left last week's game and didn't return. With T.J. Hockenson lost for the season at TE, the Vikings will need all hands on deck as they sit at 7-8 on the season. There is also a report that any of their three QBs could get the start in Week 17. If Addison can't go, Osborn could be in line for more targets. There is a lot of uncertainty surrounding this offense right now.

The Vikings ruled out TE T.J. Hockenson (knee) and WR Jordan Addison (ankle) for the rest of Sunday’s game against the Lions.

In a short period of time, the Vikings have lost two of their top offensive weapons as they try to hang around with the Lions and keep their playoff and division hopes alive. Justin Jefferson is still around which is always a positive but the offense certainly takes a hit. We’ll see if the Vikings can overcome these injuries in a big moment.

Vikings’ WR Justin Jefferson told reporters that he will play Saturday in Cincinnati.

Jefferson didn't last very long last week, but he did earn three targets on only eight routes. If he is good to go, it's going to be next to impossible to keep him on your bench, particularly with a great matchup against the Bengals.

Vikings All-Pro WR Justin Jefferson is officially off the injury report and set to make his return Sunday at Las Vegas.

With a clean bill of health, Jefferson should be considered a WR1 for fantasy once again. He should be started everywhere.

For the first time since his hamstring injury, Vikings star WR Justin Jefferson was a full participant today at practice. He'll play on Sunday.

Addison will fall back into FLEX considerations with Jefferson back, but could still produce, depending on how often the Vikings ask Joshua Dobbs to sling it around. Jefferson has to be back in WR1 conversations as one of the best route runners in the NFL.

Justin Jefferson said his hamstring recovery is going well and that he has reached top speeds during practice. He wasn’t ready to say if he thinks he can play Monday night tho. “If I’m feeling good, I will play,” he said. More to come.

Addison and Hockenson should continue to be started in all lineups. As for Jefferson managers, hopefully we can survive long enough to get him back in our fantasy playoff lineups.

Justin Jefferson is not expected to play on Monday Night Football in Week 12 against the Bears because of his hamstring, per a team source. The Vikings are not going to push their best player to get back on the field despite the fact that they are in the playoff hunt. This all makes sense as it will give the receiver two more weeks of rest from game action, thanks to the Vikings being on their bye in Week 13.

The Vikings are listing WR Justin Jefferson and RB Alexander Mattison as questionable for Sunday night vs. the Broncos.

Jefferson was trending in the right direction, but we were hoping for a full practice out of him on Friday. If he misses again, Addison and Hockenson should continue to control much of Joshua Dobbs' target share.

As for Mattison, Ty Chandler could be taking a heavy workload in his absence, making him a low-end RB2.

Jefferson is trending in the right direction, but we'll likely need to see a full practice designation on Friday for the hope of him playing in Week 11. We'll keep an eye on the situation.

WR K.J. Osborn (concussion protocol) practiced again today, meaning he participated in at least a portion of every on-field activity this week. Regardless of his game status for Sunday, it has been great to see him up and about so quickly after such a scary moment in ATL.

Osborn has been a quiet contributor this season, but still not quite enough to get him into fantasy rosters. For mid-summer best ball drafters, he has popped up for two single-touchdown games and a fantastic 8-99-0 stat line on 10 targets back in Week 8. His return would help solidify a floor for Joshua Dobbs.
