Sean Mannion Fantasy

Minnesota Vikings quarterback Sean Mannion has been promoted to the active roster ahead of Sunday's game against the Cardinals. He was part of a similar transaction last week and ended up being active for the season opener. Rookie Kellen Mond was inactive, and the same is expected to be true in Week 2. Mannion, 29, hasn't appeared in a game since 2019 when he went 12-for-21 with 126 yards and two interceptions.

The Minnesota Vikings added running back Ameer Abdullah and quarterback Sean Mannion to the active roster from the practice squad for Week 1 against the Cincinnati Bengals. Before the move, Dalvin Cook and Alexander Mattison were the only two running backs on Minnesota's roster, so Abdullah will provide some extra depth at the position. The 28-year-old has mostly been a special teams player the last two years with the Vikes, carrying the ball only 31 times for 157 yards and no touchdowns. Mannion will serve as the No. 3 QB behind Kirk Cousins and Kellen Mond for the regular season opener. Both Abdullah and Mannion can be ignored in fantasy, for now.

The Minnesota Vikings are re-signing backup quarterback Sean Mannion to an undisclosed one-year deal on Wednesday, according to a source. Mannion won't have any fantasy appeal as he continues to hold the clipboard for Kirk Cousins. The 27-year-old (28 in April) played in parts of three games in 2019 and attempted only 21 passes, throwing two interceptions. The Vikes will desperately hope that Mannion isn't making starts for them in 2020.
