Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Jordan Addison caught 3-of-8 targets for 29 yards in his team's 27-9 loss to the Los Angeles Rams in the Wild Card round. It was a forgettable day for the entire Vikings offense, as quarterback Sam Darnold was put in the dirt on nine occasions. Addison was the intended target on a few deep shots and could have had a more significant outing, but had trouble corralling most of the targets. The sophomore wideout performed well in a complementary role to his superstar teammate Justin Jefferson in 2024, and the two should continue to be a dynamic duo for the foreseeable future. However, it's impossible to know who will man the helm for Minnesota next season at this time. J.J. McCarthy (knee) is recovering from injury, while Darnold and Nick Mullens are set to be free agents, leaving Daniel Jones as the only healthy QB on the roster.

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Jordan Addison will line up for his first career playoff start against the Los Angeles Rams on Monday night. The 22-year-old's 2024 was an improvement from his debut campaign despite a dip in statistics. However, he'd likely have set new career highs across the board had he not missed two games early on with an ankle injury. While he put up a donut in the fantasy column -; on six targets -- in last weekend's loss to the Detroit Lions, Addison is a strong option in the Wild Card round. He'll get a Rams defense that's overall been a favorable spot for wideouts this season -; allowing 34 fantasy points per game. With teammate Justin Jefferson undoubtedly due for double coverage, the second-year pro should be afforded plenty of open looks. The former USC Trojan is RotoBaller's PPR WR8 for this weekend's slate.

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Jordan Addison caught 1-of-6 targets and gained no yards in his team's 31-9 loss to the Detroit Lions. Oof. Addison didn't receive his first target until the Vikings' first drive of the second quarter -- a bubble screen he caught for no gain. The next play was a deep shot to him in the end zone where he had a step on the defender, but quarterback Sam Darnold overthrew him. Otherwise, he and Darnold were not on the same page Sunday night. Detroit's defense was hungry and made a statement with linebacker Alex Anzalone back in the lineup -- keeping the QB out of rhythm and disrupting plays on the back end. With the loss, Minnesota will forego a week off and line up against the Los Angeles Rams at SoFi Stadium next Monday night. It's another exploitable matchup for the Vikes, so expect them to come out swinging in a win-or-go-home Wild Card clash.
Jan 6, 2025 12:06 AM EST
Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Jordan Addison should be in store for another productive outing in Sunday night's divisional clash with the Detroit Lions. The second-year wideout has improved in his sophomore campaign, generating a modest 4.4 receptions and 62.5 yards per game compared to 4.1 and 53.5 from a season ago. After a shaky start to the year, Addison has posted just two single-digit fantasy performances since Week 9 -; rattling off 644 yards and nine touchdowns across 48 receptions in that span. The 22-year-old gets a dream matchup this Sunday night against a Lions defense that's let up the most receiving yards per game to WRs (3,040). Despite two fewer appearances thus far in 2024, he still has a chance to set new career-high marks -; needing eight receptions, two scores, and 37 yards. Addison clocks in as RotoBaller's PPR WR17 in this week's rankings.
Jan 3, 2025 4:53 PM EST
Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Jordan Addison corralled 6-of-8 targets for 69 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 27-25 win over their division-rival Green Bay Packers. Addison has come on nicely and been superb over the last two months plus. Since Week 9, he's the PPR WR5 and notched at least eight targets in all but three appearances. The second-year wideout has matured while playing across from teammate Justin Jefferson, evolving the tandem into a formidable WR duo that's given defenses headaches. Addison could have had an even bigger game but let a perfectly thrown ball fall to the turf on what would have been a 39-yard TD. Expect the 22-year-old and the Vikings offense to be out in full force next weekend in a premier meeting with the Detroit Lions.
Dec 29, 2024 10:42 PM EST
Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Jordan Addison will get a staunch test this Sunday in the visiting Green Bay Packers. Addison reached just 35 yards in Week 16 but caught five passes and reeled in a touchdown -; the seventh in his last eight appearances. He also commanded another eight targets, the fifth time he's registered at least that many in six contests. The 22-year-old has really turned it on in the second half and could still set career highs across the board over the final few weeks despite missing two games earlier in the year with an ankle injury. His team will line up for a rematch with the Packers in Week 17 that's been stout on the back end -- letting up the ninth-fewest passing yards per game in the NFL (209.7). Fortunately, Green Bay will likely be without defensive back Jaire Alexander (knee), and Addison should be afforded open looks, with teammate Justin Jefferson drawing plenty of attention. He comes in at RotoBaller's PPR WR22 in this week's rankings.
Dec 27, 2024 5:34 PM EST
Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Jordan Addison brought in 5-of-8 targets for 35 yards and a touchdown in his team's 27-24 win against the Seattle Seahawks. Addison was Minnesota's second-leading wideout on the day, but it didn't amount to much while target-hog teammate Justin Jefferson racked up 144 yards and two touchdowns on his 13 targets (ten receptions). Still, the 22-year-old came through for fantasy managers that stuck with him -- notching his seventh TD in the last eight games. While it wasn't the most productive outing from a yardage standpoint, Addison's owners can take solace in that he was still heavily involved -- commanding at least eight targets for the fifth time since Week 11. The former first-round pick will get a tougher ask in the fantasy championship next weekend against the Green Bay Packers secondary.
Dec 22, 2024 11:28 PM EST
Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Jordan Addison will square off against the Seattle Seahawks in a road matchup this Sunday. The 22-year-old will look to continue a stretch of strong performances against a beatable Seahawks defense. Since Week 11, the second-year wideout is the WR5 in PPR formats -; racking up 30 receptions, 473 yards, and five touchdowns on 44 targets. He's been the clear second option for quarterback Sam Darnold recently and even outperformed superstar teammate Justin Jefferson several times over that frame. Seattle has been stingy in the yardage department, but they're in the league's top half regarding fantasy points allowed per game to wideouts (33.4). Addison ranks as RotoBaller's PPR WR26 ahead of this weekend's slate of action.
Dec 20, 2024 5:33 PM EST
Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Jordan Addison corralled 7-of-9 targets for 63 yards in Monday's 30-12 victory against the Chicago Bears. The 22-year-old continued an excellent stretch of performances in Week 15, racking up his second-highest target and reception total of 2024. Addison has at least seven receptions in three of four contests and at least 61 receiving yards in four of five. After a slow start to the season, he's really come on over the second half and has been a fantastic complimentary option across from WR1 Justin Jefferson in the Vikings offense. He isn't as consistent as Jefferson -- but not many athletes are. The USC product will get a chance to build on his progress in Week 16 against an exploitable Seattle Seahawks defensive unit.
Dec 17, 2024 12:14 AM EST
Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Jordan Addison will look to continue his hot stretch in Week 15 against the Chicago Bears. The second-year wideout began the season slow and mostly uninvolved in Minnesota's offense. However, that all changed in his first meeting against the Bears in Week 12 when he went off for eight receptions, 162 yards, and a TD. Since then, Addison has put together an impressive 20/349/4 line -; a stark contrast to the 24/359/3 he racked up over his first eight games. Chicago was a chore for opposing passing attacks earlier this year, but they've softened up a bit since their loss to the Vikings. The USC product is getting hot at the right time, and Minnesota's offense has looked good. Fire him up as RotoBaller's PPR WR26 in this week's rankings.
Dec 14, 2024 3:38 PM EST
Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Jordan Addison brought in 8-of-12 targets for 133 yards and three touchdowns in his team's 42-21 win over the Atlanta Falcons on Sunday. After not having done such all season, the second-year wideout went over 100 receiving yards for the second time in his last three outings. It was the first time he scored three TDs in a game, and his receiving total is the second-highest mark of his career. Addison has out-caught, out-targeted, and out-received teammate Justin Jefferson in two of their last three games. After not doing much for most of the season, the 22-year-old suddenly has viable fantasy performances in four of his last six appearances. He'll look to continue his streak of production in a rematch against their division-rival Chicago Bears in Week 15. Addison ripped off eight catches and a touchdown on 162 yards in their previous meeting.
Dec 8, 2024 6:02 PM EST
Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Jordan Addison is afforded a favorable outing in Week 14 when his team hosts the visiting Atlanta Falcons. The 22-year-old has been more involved in Minnesota's offense since Week 9 -- racking up ten more targets in that five-game stretch (33) than he did over his first five in 2024. His yardage totals weekly have been modest -- aside from a 162-yard outburst in Week 12 -- but Addison has three touchdowns in that time frame and should be in store for a productive day again Sunday. Atlanta has let up the fifth-most receptions to wideouts this season (163) and 15 touchdowns to the position (third-most), making them a juicy matchup. The USC product has been spotty this season but is in play as a low-end WR3 this weekend. Addison ranks as RotoBaller's PPR WR34 ahead of this week's slate of action.
Dec 6, 2024 6:32 PM EST
Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Jordan Addison brought in 4-of-6 targets for 54 yards in Week 13's 23-22 win over the Arizona Cardinals. Addison's targets, reception total, and yardage output were all good for second on the team behind superstar wideout Justin Jefferson (7/99). While it wasn't anything eye-popping, it's the second-year WRs fifth straight outing with at least five targets. It will be difficult for him to consistently put together monster stat lines, as he did back in Week 12 (8/162/1). Still, he's a quality WR2 for an NFL squad and should continue to see a good amount of looks while in the lineup. He'll get a soft spot in Week 14 against an Atlanta Falcons defense that allowed the seventh-most fantasy points to wide receivers (421.6) through 11 games.
Dec 1, 2024 6:32 PM EST
Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Jordan Addison is set for another difficult outing this Sunday when his team hosts the visiting Arizona Cardinals. The USC product is coming off a career day where he racked up eight receptions, 162 yards, and a touchdown on nine targets against a solid Chicago Bears defense. Arizona provides stiff competition on the back end, but Addison's outlook is on the rise after four straight games with an elevated target share. It's worth noting that his production has come at the expense of superstar teammate Justin Jefferson. We've yet to see the duo go off in the same game, though quarterback Sam Darnold did support tight end T.J. Hockenson's valuable outing (7/114) in the Week 12 win. With Darnold and Minnesota's offense back on track, the 22-year-old becomes a more intriguing option, considering the rise in his usage. Addison is RotoBaller's PPR WR41 ahead of Week 13's slate.
Nov 29, 2024 6:28 PM EST
Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Jordan Addison reeled in eight of nine targets for 162 yards and a touchdown in Week 12's 30-27 overtime victory over the Chicago Bears. The second-year wideout was busy in this one, leading his team in catches and receiving yardage while tying TE T.J. Hockenson for the team lead in targets. Addison picked up chunks of yards all afternoon and ripped off two huge plays to help Minnesota take down their division rivals. He hauled in a 45-yard pass late in the first quarter to set up his own 2-yard TD one play later, but he wasn't done there. On the first play of the third quarter, the 22-year-old caught a corner route between two defenders, broke a tackle, and scampered up the sideline for a 69-yard gain. It was a career day for the former USC Trojan -- setting new career highs in receptions and receiving yardage. He'll look to keep the good times rolling next Sunday when Minnesota lines up against the Arizona Cardinals at home.
Nov 24, 2024 5:45 PM EST
Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Jordan Addison will be difficult to trust in Week 12 when his team takes on the Chicago Bears. The second-year wideout has seen his target totals tick up over the previous few contests but will be a risky play as little more than a WR4 this weekend against a Bears defense that's been stout against the pass. On the season, Chicago has averaged a paltry 15.4 receiving points allowed to opposing WRs -- the fourth-fewest total in the league. Additionally, they've intercepted more passes (nine) than touchdowns let up through the air (seven). Addison scored his third touchdown of the season last week -; a 47-yarder -; and has undoubtedly been more involved recently. Still, he ranks as just the PPR WR42 in RotoBaller's Week 12 ranks.
Nov 22, 2024 3:54 PM EST
Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Jordan Addison caught 3-of-8 targets for 61 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 23-13 victory over the Tennessee Titans. The eight targets matched a season-high for the second-year wideout, and the score was his third on the season and second in three games. Addison's touchdown was a 47-yard catch-and-run in which he burned Tennessee's defense up the left sideline. It was a nice effort from the 22-year-old, who has had trouble building on his spectacular rookie season. However, seeing him match superstar Justin Jefferson's team-high of eight targets in the contest was encouraging. The former USC Trojan will get another staunch test next weekend when the Vikings square off against the Chicago Bears at Soldier Field. Leading up to Week 11, the Bears had allowed the seventh-fewest passing yards per game to opposing offenses (190.4).
Nov 17, 2024 5:32 PM EST
Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Jordan Addison (cramps) exited during the fourth quarter of Sunday's game against the Tennessee Titans and is officially questionable to return. At the time of his departure, he had caught three of his eight targets for 61 yards and one touchdown. Even if Addison doesn't return in Week 11, fantasy managers should feel confident about his ability to recover and be available for the Vikings next weekend in Chicago. He continues to rank as an intriguing WR3/FLEX option in most fantasy leagues. In the meantime, Jalen Nailor will step up as the Vikings' No. 2 wide receiver behind Justin Jefferson.
Nov 17, 2024 3:44 PM EST
Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Jordan Addison is an unenticing fantasy option in Week 11 when his team takes on the Tennessee Titans on the road. The second-year wideout is averaging a paltry three receptions and 42.6 yards per contest through seven appearances. He has been marginally more involved over the prior two weeks, garnering at least five targets in both outings. Still, it won't be easy to trust him this coming Sunday against one of the more effective pass defenses in the league. Tennessee has been committed to shutting down their opponent's air attacks, allowing an average of just 111 yards per game to wideouts and the fewest fantasy points per game to the position (13.6). Addison presents as RotoBaller's PPR WR49 for this weekend's slate of games.
Nov 15, 2024 5:26 PM EST
Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Jordan Addison will face off against the Jacksonville Jaguars this Sunday in Week 10. It's been a bit of a sophomore slump for Addison this season, as he is averaging just over three catches and 45.5 yards per game with two touchdowns in six contests. He had a nice outing last weekend, reeling in all five of his targets for 42 yards and a touchdown against a porous Colts defense. He may do so again in another intriguing matchup against a lowly Jaguars defensive unit that's given up the third-most fantasy points to wide receivers in 2024. Still, as the matchup does not project to be a shootout with quarterback Trevor Lawrence (shoulder) trending in the wrong direction, fantasy managers could be disappointed with Addison's performance if he doesn't hit pay dirt. The 22-year-old is RotoBaller's PPR WR33 heading into Week 10.
