Jalen Nailor
WR - Minnesota Vikings
Availability
Jalen Nailor caught 1-of-2 targets for 31 yards in the Vikings' 31-29 win over the Packers.
Fantasy Impact
Nailor saw his target share dip a bit with the return of Jordan Addison after a two game absence. Fantasy managers should expect Nailor to return to the WR3 in the Vikings' offense, making him a flex play at best in a Week 5 matchup with the Jets.
Jalen Nailor caught three passes for 31 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 34-7 win over the Houston Texans.
Fantasy Impact
Minnesota's offense had a dominant showing on Sunday, and Nailor was a beneficiary of that. He was able to get in the end zone despite catching just three passes on the day, and he looked like an involved member of their passing attack. He won't be relevant when Jordan Addison (ankle) returns to this offense, however.
Jalen Nailor caught three passes for 54 yards in Week 2’s victory against the 49ers.
Fantasy Impact
Nailor entered the matchup as the Vikings’ WR2 and finished as the WR1 once Justin Jefferson exited with a quad contusion. If Jordan Addison or Jefferson misses Week 3, Nailor should see an uptick in targets. However, if both Addison and Jefferson play Week 3, Nailor will likely be a touchdown-dependent WR4 in the matchup against the Texans.
Jalen Nailor (ankle) will be available to play in Sunday's game against the New York Giants.
Fantasy Impact
Nailor was able to log a full practice on Friday after being limited earlier in the week. He doesn't carry an injury designation heading into the weekend, and he should be good to go for Minnesota's season opener against the Giants. Fantasy managers shouldn't expect much out of him in Week 1, especially with Jordan Addison (ankle) available to play for the Vikings.
Jalen Nailor (ankle) was limited at practice on Thursday.
Fantasy Impact
Nailor was limited at Thursday's practice because of an ankle injury. His availability for Week 1 is in question for the time being, but we might get more clarity on his status after Minnesota's practice on Friday. With Jordan Addison also dealing with an injury, Minnesota's receiving core could be weaker than usual in Week 1.
