Jalen Nailor health update via ESPN, Thielen takes pay cut

Jaylen Nailor’s return from hand injury looms large as Minnesota weighs how to split targets with Jordan Addison back and Justin Jefferson still the focal point. Jeremy Fowler’s Vikings optimism anchors a depth chart that could finally unleash Adam Thielen’s familiarity with KOC’s system without forcing him into a de facto lead role. Hawkinson, Oliver, Ham and a revitalized run game could anchor a multifaceted attack, while the defense reshapes with Turner, Van Ginkel, Phillips and a healthier Darasaw. Week 1 pressure meets opportunity in Chicago.

With Nailor back and Addison ramping up, which Vikings skill-position player holds the strongest Week 1 fantasy floor?How should fantasy managers calibrate Jefferson’s target share in light of Nailor’s return and Addison’s ramp?What’s the risk-reward balance for Thielen’s role in 2024 after restructuring his contract?Which Week 1 strategies maximize the Vikings’ multi-weapon offense in DFS formats?

Counting down the most interesting Vikings at training camp (20-16)

Training camp for the Minnesota Vikings is fast approaching, and discussions surrounding the most interesting players are heating up. Matthew Coller dives into players 20-16 on his intriguing list, spotlighting Jaylen Naylor, Gabriel Murphy, Will Riker, Max Brosmer, and Dwight McGlon. Naylor stands out with his physical transformation and the potential for a breakout season, especially with the contracts of wide receiver threes rising. Murphy's earlier flashes and injuries raise questions about his role amidst a competitive outside linebacker group. Riker had a stellar training camp last season but faced setbacks due to injury, and expectations are high for his return. Brosmer, the former Gopher quarterback, shows promise as a developmental option, while McGlon is noted for his instinctive play and potential to secure a backup cornerback role. With training camp around the corner, all eyes will be on these players as they vie for their spots on the roster.
