Jalen Nailor Looks For More After Breakout Week

Friday, November 14, 6:41 PM

Coming off a career-best day in Week 10, Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Jalen Nailor is tough to trust in Week 11 with a fluctuating pass-catching role. The fourth-year pro broke out for 124 yards and a touchdown on only five catches last week against Baltimore, which bested fellow wide receivers Justin Jefferson and Jordan Addison. The Vikings consistently praise Nailor, who has a proven history of being a quality run blocker, special teamer, and making big catches when called upon. While first-time starting quarterback J.J. McCarthy seems to trust Nailor, his receiving workload hasn't been consistent enough to rely upon in most leagues. Nailor had three catches in the three weeks prior to his career day, and even against a lowly ranked Bears defense, he should be saved only for leagues with three-plus flex spots.

Matthew Golden Active for Week 11 Against Giants

Sunday, November 16, 11:40 AM

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Matthew Golden (shoulder) is officially active for Sunday's Week 11 contest against the New York Giants. He had been listed as questionable following three consecutive limited practices. The 22-year-old is returning from a one-week absence. Through eight games this year, he has just 23 catches for 262 yards, and he's still looking for his first career touchdown. The first-round pick has not yet lived up to expectations, ranking as the overall WR72 in PPR leagues so far. He can be benched or dropped in most redraft leagues.
