Laquon Treadwell Fantasy

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Laquon Treadwell is inactive for Sunday's Wild Card contest against the New Orleans Saints. Treadwell would've been a very risky hail-mary type option in daily fantasy formats as it was, but the Vikings are rolling with just four receivers today in Adam Thielen, Stefon Diggs, Olabisi Johnson, and Alexander Hollins. Pivoting any Treadwell shares to Hollins or another cheap option would be the right move at this point.

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Laquon Treadwell will likely see extended playing time again this week in the absence of top wideout Adam Thielen (hamstring). Treadwell caught one of his two targets for a wide-open 58-yard score last week, but he should not be considered as a starting option in Week 14. The fourth-year wideout has seen one or zero targets in five of his seven games played - that fact alone should have you looking elsewhere for desperation streaming options. He'll compete with Olabisi Johnson, Kyle Rudolph, and Dalvin Cook for (likely) limited targets behind Stefon Diggs this week. If you must have a backup receiver from this game, look to Johnson with his higher snap count and target-share.

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Laquon Treadwell hauled in a 58-yard touchdown in a 37-30 loss to the Seattle Seahawks in Week 13. Treadwell found himself wide open on the play and easily waltzed in for the second touchdown of his career. He only saw two targets in the game and receiver Adam Thielen (hamstring) is expected to be back in Week 14, so leave the former first-rounder on waiver wires.
