Vikings place center Ryan Kelly on injured reserve ahead of Week 5
Center Ryan Kelly on injured reserve, forcing Minnesota to patch the interior ahead of Week 5 vs. Cleveland. Four-week timeline includes the Bye, elevating Michael Jurgens as emergency center and testing guard depth for snaps. Vikings also released Desmond Ridder and activated C.J. Ham off IR, signaling a broad roster reset amid multiple injuries and potential midseason moves after returning to the U.S.
With Kelly out four weeks including the Bye, should fantasy teams target Vikings' run game and pass protection differently?Is Ridder's release likely to trigger a QB hunt or external signing for depth behind Cousins?Does Ham's return hint at a larger role for him or a keep-it-simple reintroduction?What midseason O-line moves are most likely for the Vikings after the Bye?

Vikings without QB J.J. McCarthy, majority of starting O-line - ESPN
McCarthy is out with a right high ankle sprain, sidelining him for a third straight game, so Carson Wentz will start Sunday for Minnesota against Cleveland in London. The Vikings’ offense is thin up front with multiple linemen out, forcing a reshuffle: Brandel to center, Huber at left guard, Skule at right tackle, and Darrisaw back after Week 3. Fantasy managers must weigh Wentz’s ceiling against the shaky line in a high-stakes London tilt.
With McCarthy out, how should fantasy managers approach Wentz as a streamer in this London matchup?Should you lean into Vikings’ pass catchers or running backs given the O-line injuries?Does Darrisaw’s return change the Vikings’ ceiling in this game and beyond?What is the Browns’ defensive outlook in this London game against a shuffled Vikings line?

Kevin O'Connell is 'very much looking forward' to what's next for J.J. McCarthy
Carson Wentz will start for Minnesota in London as J.J. McCarthy eyes a Week 7 return from a high ankle sprain after the bye. McCarthy’s path hinges on rehab pace, weather, and frontline health. If he’s not ready for Philadelphia, Week 8 vs the Chargers or Week 9 at Detroit could shape his return. O-line injuries (Jackson, Kelly, O’Neill) complicate timing and fantasy upside, making McCarthy’s debut timing-critical for Vikings pass-catchers and Dalvin Cook.
With McCarthy’s return timeline uncertain, should fantasy managers roster him over a Week 8 pickup?Which Vikings weapons get the clearest targets if McCarthy returns healthy?What risk flags should we monitor as McCarthy re-enters the lineup?If McCarthy struggles initially, what’s the safe floor alternative for Week 7?

Vikings 'want to be really smart' with J.J. McCarthy's high ankle sprain
Week 7ing Minnesota hinges on McCarthy’s health and how the Vikings pace his return after the bye. Kevin O’Connell won’t rush the rookie back from a high ankle sprain, instead letting him rehab and re-acclimate while the offense contends with line injuries and Jordan Addison’s suspension. Wentz is brought up as a contrasting QB in the same matchup, with the team needing all 11 on offense to click. A brutal post-bye stretch (Eagles, Chargers, Ravens, Lions) makes this a must-get-right game against the Browns in London.
If McCarthy is cleared to play Week 7, how does the Vikings’ ceiling shift for fantasy lineups?What game script most likely yields the highest fantasy output for the Vikings in Week 7?How should season-long fantasy managers position Vikings’ WR depth in light of Addison’s absence and potential McCarthy return?What is the single most important factor in Week 7 for Vikings’ success—QB health, line protection, or play-design—and why?

Do the Vikings have anyone to fear if Myles Garrett doesn't play for the Browns?

Myles Garrett's health decision looms over the Browns in London as Cleveland leans on rookie Dillon Gabriel. Garrett's presence powers the league's top end rush, and a limited performance could sap the Browns defense's fantasy upside while inviting Minnesota to test the interior on the road.

Minnesota arrives with travel advantages and a reshuffled line for Cleveland, where Donovan Jackson is out and Brian O Neill is banged up. If Garrett is limited, the Vikings' offense tightens its window of opportunity, while Browns defenders like Maliek Collins and Isaiah McGuire must compensate. Travel, rookie QB start, and injuries tilt this one toward careful fantasy play on both sides.

Which Browns defenders gain the most fantasy relevance if Garrett plays vs if he is limited?How does the London game travel dynamic shift fantasy DST and QB projections for Cleveland and Minnesota?If Donovan Jackson is out and Brian O Neill is questionable, does the Vikings run or pass game tilt more favorable for fantasy bettors?Which players step up if Dillon Gabriel struggles in his first NFL start?
