Jordan Addison Brings Risk, But Opportunity, To Week 2 Lineups

Friday, September 18, 12:41 PM

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Jordan Addison should be considered a volatile WR4 option in Week 2, albeit one facing an excellent matchup against the Chicago Bears. Despite the Vikings scoring 39 points in Week 1, the fourth-year receiver didn't record a catch on just two targets. The Vikings also will be starting backup quarterback Carson Wentz again, as Minnesota already ruled out starter Kyler Murray (concussion). The Bears' defense, however, ranks 29th in air yards allowed and surrendered 351 yards passing to Carolina last week. While Addison is always in fellow receiver Justin Jefferson's shadow, the circumstances suggest a few high-value targets could be coming Addison's way this week. Managers who played Addison in Week 1 can't be faulted for feeling like Charlie Brown lining up to kick the football again, but the matchup is favorable enough that Addison is at least worthy of consideration for a flex spot, especially in deeper formats.

Caleb Williams Unlikely to Play Monday, Could Face 2-4 Week Recovery

Tuesday, September 22, 10:03 AM

Chicago Bears quarterback Caleb Williams (hamstring) exited Sunday's loss to the Vikings with a hamstring injury, and on Tuesday, NFL Insider Ian Rapoport noted that he is unlikely to play on Monday night against the Eagles, with his status more up in the air for a Week 4 matchup against the Jets. Rapoport pointed out that the recovery timeline for this type of injury generally falls in the 2-4 week range but expressed confidence that backup Tyler Bagent would play well in Williams' absence. Williams was the overall QB1 in Week 1, and while his pre-injury performance on Sunday was not at the same level, expectations remain high for the former first overall pick, and he should be plugged directly back into lineups upon his eventual return.
