Mike Hughes Fantasy

The Minnesota Vikings fear that rookie cornerback Mike Hughes, their first-round pick, suffered a torn ACL in the Week 6 win over the Cardinals, according to league sources. Hughes will have an MRI exam on Monday. It'll be a blow to the team's secondary, but the Vikings remain a strong fantasy defense while facing impressive rookie quarterback Sam Darnold and the Jets in Week 7.

The Minnesota Vikings selected Central Florida defensive back Mike Hughes with the 30th pick in the 2018 NFL draft. Hughes has a history of off-field incidents and bounced around colleges because of that. On the field, he has the total package with tremendous ball skills and physicality. He has a knack for tracking the ball deep down the field and winning 50-50 balls. He slid down the draft board because of his off-field issues, but he could be a fine pro and should immediately help Minnesota's shaky secondary.
