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.

Tip Reiman Carted Off with Right Leg Injury

Sunday, October 5, 6:43 PM

Arizona Cardinals tight end Tip Reiman (right leg) was carted to the locker room during the second half of Sunday's Week 5 contest against the Tennessee Titans. He suffered the injury after failing to haul in his first and only target of the game. Given the urgency of the Cardinals' medical personnel to get the cart on the field for Reiman, this could be a very serious injury, and it's likely one that will keep him sidelined for the remainder of the contest. He has merely occupied a depth role in Arizona this season, catching just three passes for 18 yards. Elijah Higgins will step up as the No. 2 tight end behind Trey McBride.
