Jordan Addison News
Friday, October 9, 1:03 PM
Minnesota Vikings receiver Jordan Addison (hamstring) drew a questionable tag and will be a wait-and-see WR3 option when his team travels to New Orleans in Week 5. The speedster popped up on the injury report during the week and did not practice Wednesday, but did return in a limited capacity on Thursday and Friday, suggesting he'll have a chance to play against the Saints. Addison caught four of his six targets last week and had his best game of the year in Week 3, though top receiver Justin Jefferson (ankle) said this week that he aims to play, which will diminish Addison's volume. The Saints' defense has allowed points half the time it has been on the field, which ranks last in the league, though their primary struggles have been against the run. All told, Addison is playable as RotoBaller's No. 33 receiver this week, but managers should check in Sunday to make sure he is active.

Zay Flowers News
Friday, October 9, 2:36 PM
Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Zay Flowers (foot) was limited in practice all week and is questionable to play in Week 5 against the Atlanta Falcons on Sunday Night Football, according to Adam Caplan of Sirius XM NFL Radio. Flowers has already missed a game in 2026 due to a hamstring injury and is now dealing with a foot injury. It is a bit concerning that Baltimore's game is on Sunday night with Flowers up in the air to play, but he seems to be on the right side of questionable and should suit up for the Ravens. Fantasy managers will want to check back for an update on Flowers by Saturday evening. Even if Flowers gets the green light, his fantasy football value takes a hit this week with quarterback Lamar Jackson (ankle) already being ruled out. The 26-year-old has been strong for fantasy managers as a must-start in his three games played despite dealing with nagging injuries early on, catching 18 of his 22 targets for 352 yards and two touchdowns. If Flowers is active, which is expected, he will be a more volatile WR1 this week while backup QB Tyler Huntley runs the Ravens' offense.
