Jordan Addison Inactive Against Saints

Sunday, October 11, 7:48 AM

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Jordan Addison (hamstring) is inactive for Sunday's Week 5 matchup against the New Orleans Saints, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN. Addison missed Wednesday's practice before returning for limited sessions Thursday and Friday, but he won't be able to play. He had been getting more involved in Minnesota's passing game, catching nine passes for 142 yards and a touchdown over the previous two weeks. Five of those receptions came against Tampa Bay in Week 3, when he finished with 90 yards and a score. Justin Jefferson (ankle) is back after missing last week's game, while the Vikings elevated Odell Beckham Jr. and Jeshaun Jones from the practice squad Saturday.

Devaughn Vele Could Be in Line for Bigger Role in Week 6

Friday, October 16, 8:39 PM

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Devaughn Vele caught four of six targets for 26 yards in Week 5's loss to the Vikings. His yardage total was a season low, though it came amid an overall poor offensive performance from the Saints offense. Despite fellow wide receiver Chris Olave ranking second in the league with 537 receiving yards, Vele continues to lead the team's receivers in snap percentage at 91%. His 10.1 yards per reception is a career low, but his averages of 50.4 receiving yards and 5.0 receptions per game are career highs. With Olave (illness) questionable for Week 6, Vele could take on WR1 duties if his teammate is unable to suit up. Vele ranks as WR34 in RotoBaller's rankings this week, but his fantasy floor and ceiling would both rise if Olave sits.
