Jordan Addison Fantasy Stats

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Jordan Addison (hamstring) is inactive for Sunday's Week 5 matchup against the New Orleans Saints, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN. Addison missed Wednesday's practice before returning for limited sessions Thursday and Friday, but he won't be able to play. He had been getting more involved in Minnesota's passing game, catching nine passes for 142 yards and a touchdown over the previous two weeks. Five of those receptions came against Tampa Bay in Week 3, when he finished with 90 yards and a score. Justin Jefferson (ankle) is back after missing last week's game, while the Vikings elevated Odell Beckham Jr. and Jeshaun Jones from the practice squad Saturday.

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Jordan Addison (hamstring) is expected to be inactive for Sunday's Week 5 contest against the New Orleans Saints, according to Jeff Darlington of ESPN. Addison entered the weekend listed as questionable. While he'll undergo a pregame workout to confirm his availability, all signs point to him being sidelined on Sunday. That's a rough loss for the Vikings as they take on a high-scoring team like the Saints. After all, Addison had racked up nine catches, 142 yards, and one touchdown over the last two weeks, albeit with Jefferson injured for both games. The good news for the Vikings is that Justin Jefferson (ankle) is expected to play on Sunday, keeping this Kyler Murray-led offense viable while the defense works hard to slow down New Orleans.

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Jordan Addison (hamstring) will work out prior to Sunday's Week 5 contest against the New Orleans Saints, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL.com. Addison is listed as questionable, and the workout will determine whether he's able to suit up on Sunday against the Saints. The 24-year-old has taken on a larger role lately with Justin Jefferson (ankle) sidelined, catching nine passes for 142 yards and one touchdown across two games. Jefferson is also questionable and will undergo pregame testing, but he has previously said that he'll do whatever he can to play in Louisiana, where he went to college. It's worth noting that if Jefferson plays, Addison's fantasy value would drop to the fringe low-end WR3 range for Week 5.

Minnesota Vikings receiver Jordan Addison (hamstring) drew a questionable tag and will be a wait-and-see WR3 option when his team travels to New Orleans in Week 5. The speedster popped up on the injury report during the week and did not practice Wednesday, but did return in a limited capacity on Thursday and Friday, suggesting he'll have a chance to play against the Saints. Addison caught four of his six targets last week and had his best game of the year in Week 3, though top receiver Justin Jefferson (ankle) said this week that he aims to play, which will diminish Addison's volume. The Saints' defense has allowed points half the time it has been on the field, which ranks last in the league, though their primary struggles have been against the run. All told, Addison is playable as RotoBaller's No. 33 receiver this week, but managers should check in Sunday to make sure he is active.

Minnesota Vikings head coach Kevin O'Connell said that wide receiver Jordan Addison (hamstring) will be questionable to play in Week 5 against the hosting New Orleans Saints on Sunday, per Alec Lewis of The Athletic. Addison is dealing with a sore hamstring that kept him sidelined at Wednesday's practice. The good news is that the 24-year-old was able to practice on a limited basis on Friday before also running through some drills on Friday. Addison feels like a good bet to gain clearance to play by Sunday in New Orleans, but fantasy managers should keep a close eye on his status until then. Fellow wideout Justin Jefferson (ankle) missed last week's win over the Miami Dolphins and is also questionable to play this weekend. If Addison plays and Jefferson doesn't, Addison will be a must-start in fantasy lineups as Minnesota's No. 1 receiver. With Jefferson out in Week 4, Addison caught four of his six targets for 52 yards a week after going for a season-high 90 yards and his first touchdown of the season. Tight end T.J. Hockenson could be a big beneficiary again this week if one or both of Addison and Jefferson are sidelined.

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Jordan Addison (hamstring) returned to practice on Thursday, per Kevin Seifert of ESPN. Addison missed practice on Wednesday with hamstring soreness, but it appears he is trending towards being active for Minnesota's Week 5 matchup against the New Orleans Saints. Across four games this season, the 24-year-old has recorded 11 catches for 163 yards and a touchdown on 22 targets. Most of his production has come in the last two weeks, when star Vikings wideout Justin Jefferson (ankle) has been sidelined by an ankle injury. Jefferson could be in line to return for Minnesota in Week 5, which would definitely impact Addison's fantasy outlook. If Jefferson is unable to play, Addison profiles as a likely starter for fantasy managers in three-wide receiver league formats. UPDATE: Addison was limited in his return to practice.

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Jordan Addison (hamstring) did not practice on Wednesday, according to Alec Lewis of The Athletic. Vikings head coach Kevin O'Connell said that Addison is dealing with some hamstring soreness. He noted that it was a minor issue, so it sounds like Addison will be fine in time for the Week 5 matchup against the New Orleans Saints. Addison is finally beginning to produce consistent numbers, so fantasy managers don't need him to go down with an injury right now. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor his status throughout the week.

Coming off his best game of the season, Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Jordan Addison carries WR3/Flex potential into the team's Week 4 matchup against the Miami Dolphins. The former USC Trojan caught his first touchdown of the season and led the Vikings in receiving in a win last week at Tampa Bay, and now Minnesota approaches this week without star receiver Justin Jefferson (ankle). The Vikings' offense has looked bad, but Miami has bigger issues up and down the roster, and its defense has been no exception. The Dolphins have allowed points on half of their opponents' possessions, which is tied for last in the NFL, and they also rank in the bottom five in yards per play (29th), pressure percentage (30th), and sacks (32nd). Addison's solid performance last week, temporary status as the team's top receiver, and a lowly-ranked opponent give him lineup appeal. He's RotoBaller's WR29 for Week 4.

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Jordan Addison could see a significant increase in targets following the injury to star receiver Justin Jefferson (ankle). In three games this season, Addison has hauled in seven of 16 targets for 111 yards and a touchdown, averaging just under seven half-PPR fantasy points per game. Despite his slow start, Jefferson suffered an ankle sprain and couldn't play through it in Week 3 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. In his absence, Addison was very productive, hauling in five of nine targets for 90 yards and a touchdown. With the Vikings' bye week coming up in Week 6, Addison could be the focal point of the passing game if Jefferson can't return in Weeks 4 and 5. Fantasy managers will need to track Jefferson's practice status, as it will likely determine whether Addison can be started against the Miami Dolphins.

Following a tough-luck start to the season, Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Jordan Addison has an excellent chance to regain some fantasy relevance in Week 3 at the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The Vikings played most of their first two games without starting quarterback Kyler Murray (concussion) and leaned on the run in a rain-drenched Week 2 win at the Bears. Now, though, Murray is back in time to face a wayward Bucs defense, which could be great news for Addison. The Bucs rank in the bottom five in completion percentage allowed, air yards allowed, and pressure percentage, opening the door for the USC product to have his first quality receiving game of the year. As RotoBaller's No. 33 receiver this week, Addison is a WR3/flex option with some potential to break his early-season slump.
