Vikings WR Jordan Addison removed from injury report ahead of Week 4

Tom Pelissero

Sep 27 · 2:34 PM EDT

Vikings WR Jordan Addison (ankle) is off the injury report and good to go Sunday at Green Bay.

QB Sam Darnold (knee), edge Dallas Turner (knee) and LT Christian Darrisaw (illness) also off the final injury report.

Related Players: Justin Jefferson, Jalen Nailor

Fantasy Impact:

This all but eradicates Nailor's fantasy value, but he is likely to still be in the mix, which puts a cap on Addison in his first week back since the second half of Week 1. Both of them are nothing more than desperation Flex options in Week 4.

MIN QB Sam Darnold - Week 4 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 4 at Green Bay Packers

Sam Darnold's career resurgence continues. He has multiple touchdowns in all three games so far, including four last week against the Texans. Kevin O'Connell and Darnold are so far a match made in heaven. They hope to continue that match this week against the Packers, who rank 22nd in passing yards allowed per game but 10th in EPA per pass allowed. Darnold continues creeping up towards being a fantasy starter.
