Jordan Addison Held Out With Jammed Thumb

Wednesday, August 5, 10:48 AM

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Jordan Addison (thumb) will not participate in Wednesday's practice after jamming his thumb earlier this week, according to Ben Goessling. Head coach Kevin O'Connell said imaging came back clean, and Addison will remain on the field while the team gives the injury time to settle before he resumes catching passes. Minnesota is off Thursday, giving him another day to recover. Addison caught 42 passes for 610 yards and three touchdowns in 14 games last season. The clean imaging is encouraging, and there is no reason to adjust his fantasy outlook unless the thumb continues to limit him when the Vikings return to practice.

Texans Taking their Time with Tank Dell

Friday, August 7, 9:18 AM

Houston Texans wide receiver Tank Dell (knee) is expected to be eased in during this training camp and season, despite looking strong in drills. Head coach DeMeco Ryans was excited about Dell's return to the field, saying, "You want to see that comeback story. Tank (Dell) looks real nice out there. We're taking our time with Tank, allowing him to come along. Outstanding job, nice crisp in routes. It's exciting." Dell suffered a significant knee/leg injury, including torn ACL, MCL, and LCL, a patellar tendon injury, and a vascular injury that required emergency surgery. This comeback is nothing short of legendary, as Dell hopes to regain his previous form, in which he averaged over 55 receiving yards per game and scored 10 touchdowns in 25 games. While the risk is evident when drafting Dell, the upside remains for him to be a late-round sleeper.
