Josh Oliver Scores Again For Vikings

Sunday, October 5, 2:08 PM

Minnesota Vikings tight end Josh Oliver scored a touchdown for the second time in three weeks, finishing with two catches for 35 yards and a touchdown in the Vikings' 21-17 victory against Cleveland. The blocking-focused tight end was the secret weapon on a trick play, leaking through the Browns' defense with backup running back Cam Akers in a Wildcat look, which led to a 32-yard scoring connection for the Vikings' first touchdown. Oliver nearly had a second score, but was tackled inside the five on his only other catch. He remains an unpredictable, touchdown-dependent play, but deserves some roster consideration in deeper formats.

Brock Wright Misses Monday's Practice

Monday, November 24, 9:14 PM

Detroit Lions tight end Brock Wright (neck) was listed as a non-participant during Monday's estimated practice. Wright played nearly 90 percent of the offensive snaps on Sunday, but appears to have picked up a neck injury along the way. His status is now uncertain heading into a short week with a matchup against the Green Bay Packers on Thanksgiving. The Lions are already without Sam LaPorta (back), so losing Wright would really put them in a bad spot. The 26-year-old hauled in three of his four targets for 29 yards during Sunday's win over the New York Giants. Fantasy managers will need to check back for another update on his status.
