Jalen Nailor, Brandon Powell Listed As Co-Starters In WR3 Role

Wednesday, August 7, 9:20 AM

Minnesota Vikings wide receivers Jalen Nailor and Brandon Powell were listed as co-starters in the No. 3 role on the team's first unofficial depth chart. The wideout spot behind Justin Jefferson and Jordan Addison is open following the departure of K.J. Osborn, and the pair of pass-catchers are the prime candidates to fill that gap. Nailor, a sixth-round pick out of Michigan State in 2022, has tallied 12 receptions for 208 yards and one touchdown through his first 21 NFL games. Powell, an undrafted free agent in 2018, has hauled in 76 receptions for 678 yards and three touchdowns in 55 games with the Detroit Lions, Atlanta Falcons, Los Angeles Rams, and Vikings. It will be interesting to see who comes out of the camp battle victorious, but neither is likely to have much fantasy value in an offense led by Sam Darnold or rookie J.J. McCarthy. However, one of the two wideouts could have deep-league value early in the season if Addison is suspended following his misdemeanor DUI charge, especially since tight end T.J. Hockenson (knee) is likely to miss the start of the regular season.

Malachi Corley News

Malachi Corley Inactive For Week 14

Sunday, December 8, 12:17 PM

New York Jets wide receiver Malachi Corley (coach's decision) is inactive for Week 14 against the Miami Dolphins. He had not been listed on the injury report, so it appears that he's a healthy scratch. This makes sense given that the Jets activated Allen Lazard from injured reserve on Saturday, so there simply wasn't any room for Corley on the gameday roster. The rookie has appeared in eight games this season, catching just three passes for 16 yards and also losing a costly fumble. He can be dropped in all redraft leagues.
