Addison secured seven of nine targets for 63 yards in the Vikings' 30-12 win over the Bears on Monday night.
Addison tied Justin Jefferson for the team lead in receptions on the night while checking in second behind his teammate in both receiving yards and targets. The talented second-year wideout got off to a hot start, as four of his catches came during two first-half possessions. Addison has logged 21 targets over his last two games and parlayed them into 196 receiving yards heading into a Week 16 road battle against the Seahawks where he should be busy once again.

Vikings' Jordan Addison: WRs to Start
Rotowire
Addison has scored at least 15.1 PPR points in three of his past four games, including two outings with at least 30.2 PPR points over that span. One of those big performances was at Chicago in Week 12 when he had eight catches for 162 yards and a touchdown on nine targets. He has 35 targets in his past four games, and he's worth starting in all leagues in the rematch with the Bears. Four receivers have scored at least 12.3 PPR points against Chicago in the past four games, and Addison is worth starting in all leagues.

Vikings' Jordan Addison: Career-high TD total in win
Rotowire
Addison secured eight of 12 targets for 133 yards and three touchdowns in the Vikings' 42-21 win over the Falcons on Sunday.
Addison led the Vikings across the board in receptions, receiving yards and targets, narrowly edging Justin Jefferson by one in the first two categories. The second-year wideout's season had been considered largely disappointing until three games ago, when Addison turned in an 8-162-1 line against the Bears at Soldier Field. Sunday's performance saw Addison establish a new single-game career high in touchdown catches with scoring receptions of 49, 11 and six yards, and it also featured a season-high-tying reception tally and a new high-water mark in targets. Given his recent body of work, Addison will head into a Week 15 divisional showdown against the Bears on Monday night, Dec. 16 with plenty of momentum.

Vikings' Jordan Addison: Sleeper WRs
Rotowire
Addison only scored 9.4 PPR points in Week 13 against Arizona, but he still had six targets for four catches and 54 yards. That's now 23 targets in his past three games, and he scored at least 15.1 PPR points in previous two outings against Tennessee and Chicago. I expect him to get back on track in Week 14 against the Falcons, who are No. 5 in most Fantasy points allowed to opposing receivers. Atlanta has allowed six touchdowns to receivers in the past four games, and six receivers have scored at least 13.3 PPR points against the Falcons over that span.

Vikings' Jordan Addison: Four grabs against Cards
Rotowire
Addison caught four of six targets for 54 yards in Sunday's 23-22 win over the Cardinals.
The second-year wideout did most of his damage early as Justin Jefferson faced his usual double and triple teams, but by the end of the day Addison was comfortably second on the Vikings in catches and receiving yards. Addison has seen at least five targets in five straight games, posting a 22-344-3 line on 33 targets over that stretch, and he'll look to stay productive in Week 14 against the Falcons.

Vikings' Jordan Addison: Sleeper WRs
Rotowire
Addison is finally starting to get used like we hoped all season, and hopefully, he stays hot in Week 13 against the Cardinals. In his past two games against the Titans and Bears, Addison has 17 targets for 11 catches, 123 yards, and two touchdowns, and he scored at least 15.1 PPR points in each outing. There could be a squeaky wheel game coming for Justin Jefferson, which could impact Addison in a negative way, but given his recent spike in targets, he's worth using as a No. 3 Fantasy receiver in the majority of leagues.

Vikings' Jordan Addison: Enjoys career day
Rotowire
Addison recorded eight receptions on nine targets for 162 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 30-27 overtime win over the Bears.
Addison posted both the highest yardage and reception total of his career against a Bears secondary that has regularly shut down opposing wide receivers. He did the majority of his damage on receptions of 69 and 45 yards, and he showed impressive balance for a long run after the catch down the sideline on the former play. Addison also found the end zone for the second consecutive game on a two-yard catch early in the second quarter. While Justin Jefferson will remain the top priority in the Minnesota offense, Addison's performance shows the ability to make opposing defenses pay when they focus on taking Jefferson out of the game.

Vikings' Jordan Addison: Past cramping from Sunday
Rotowire
Addison (leg) wasn't listed on the Vikings' initial Week 12 injury report posted Wednesday.
Addison suffered from cramps in one of his legs during the fourth quarter this past Sunday at Tennessee, which forced him to miss the rest of the contest. He thus finished the Week 11 win with three catches (on eight targets) for 61 yards and one touchdown on a 60 percent snap share. With the issue now in the rear-view mirror, Addison is good to go ahead of Sunday's game at Chicago.

Vikings' Jordan Addison: Fails to return due to leg cramping
Rotowire
Addison was unable to return to Sunday's 23-13 win over the Titans after he experienced cramping in one of his legs during the fourth quarter of the contest, Ben Goessling of the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports.
Due in part to the cramping issue, Addison played only 44 of the Vikings' 73 offensive snaps, with his 60 percent share marking his second-lowest rate of the season. The wideout still came through with three catches for 61 yards and a touchdown on eight targets before exiting the game. Addison should be ready to go for next Sunday's contest in Chicago, where he'll likely see his snap share rise back to its typical 80-to-95 percent range.

Vikings' Jordan Addison: Dealing with cramps
Rotowire
Addison is questionable to return to Sunday's game at Tennessee due to cramps, Kevin Seifert of ESPN.com reports.
Prior to his exit early in the fourth quarter, Addison hauled in three of eight targets for 61 yards and one touchdown. Jalen Nailor, Trent Sherfield and Brandon Powell are the healthy wide receivers aside from premier option Justin Jefferson with Addison sidelined.

Vikings' Jordan Addison: Held quiet in win
Rotowire
Addison recorded two receptions on five targets for 25 yards in Sunday's 12-7 win over the Jaguars.
Addison continues to struggle to command targets, as he's now surpassed five targets in only one of seven games this season. That's led to disappointing results that continued Sunday, as he was targeted deep down the field on a few occasions but managed to translate that into receptions of only 21 and four yards. Addison has more than 50 receiving yards in just two contests on the campaign, making him an unreliable fantasy option that is primarily dependent on big plays to produce.

Vikings' Jordan Addison: Nabs TD on SNF
Rotowire
Addison corralled all five targets for 42 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 21-13 win over the Colts. He added one rushing attempt for nine yards.
The 22-year-old scored a touchdown for the first time since Week 4, helping bolster what has been a disappointing first half of the season. Addison's low-end production limits his fantasy value to deeper formats for next Sunday's tilt against Jacksonville.

Vikings' Jordan Addison: Another disappointing effort
Rotowire
Addison brought in two of three targets for 22 yards in the Vikings' 30-20 loss to the Rams on Thursday night.
Addison was once again a bit player in the air attack, with the likes of Aaron Jones, Josh Oliver and Jalen Nailor all recording the same amount of receptions as the second-year wideout. Addison hasn't topped three receptions or 72 yards in any game this season, and he's now logged four or fewer targets in four of five contests. Addison's next opportunity to revert to his 2023 production comes in a favorable Week 9 home matchup against the Colts on Sunday night, Nov. 3.

Vikings' Jordan Addison: Three grabs in loss
Rotowire
Addison brought in three of four targets for 66 yards in the Vikings' 31-29 loss to the Lions on Sunday.
Addison was third or tied for that slotting in receptions, receiving yards and targets for the Vikings on the afternoon, but that resulted in relatively unremarkable production. The second-year wideout did manage a game-long 51-yard reception, and Addison's numbers were a marked improvement over his 36-yard tally in Week 5 against the Jets. Addison has exactly three catches in each of his first four games heading into a Week 8 road matchup against the Rams on Thursday night.

Vikings' Jordan Addison: Sleeper WRs
Rotowire
The Lions are No. 4 in most Fantasy points allowed to opposing receivers and just lost their best pass rusher in Aiden Hutchinson (leg) for the season. That should bode well for Addison and Justin Jefferson, and Addison is worth using as a high-end No. 3 Fantasy receiver in all leagues. He only scored 6.6 PPR points against the Jets in Week 5, but he had eight targets in that matchup. In his last game against the Lions last season, Addison had four catches for 57 yards and a touchdown, so hopefully, he can repeat that level of production or better in this Week 7 NFC North showdown.

Vikings' Jordan Addison: Struggles against Jets
Rotowire
Addison recorded three receptions on eight targets for 36 yards in Sunday's 23-17 win over the Jets.
The short-term outcome wasn't positive for Addison, as he averaged an abysmal 4.5 yards per target. However, he became a more significant part of the offensive game plan by tallying a season-high eight targets. The Vikings will head into a Week 6 bye, but Addison should have a significant role in a pivotal Week 7 matchup in a divisional showdown with the Lions.

Vikings' Jordan Addison: WRs to Sit
Rotowire
Addison returned from a two-game absence with an ankle injury with a bang in Week 4 at Green Bay with 22.9 PPR points. He scored two touchdowns, one on the ground, but he only had four targets and three catches for 72 yards. I'm hopeful we'll get more volume for Addison moving forward, but this is a tough matchup to trust him against the Jets. They are No. 7 in fewest Fantasy points allowed to opposing receivers, and while Justin Jefferson remains a must-start option in all leagues, Addison should only be started in three-receiver formats in Week 5.

Vikings' Jordan Addison: Stays limited Thursday
Rotowire
Addison (ankle) was limited at Thursday's practice.
The Vikings held a walkthrough Wednesday, so Addison's listing of limited on the ensuing injury report was an estimate. With an appearance at an actual practice under his belt one day later, he now appears to be closing in on a return. In the end, Friday's report will unveil whether he goes into the weekend with a designation for Sunday's contest at Green Bay or cleared for his first game action since Week 1, when he initially sustained a right ankle sprain. For what it's worth, Addison told Dane Mizutani of the St. Paul Pioneer Press on Thursday that he expects to suit up Sunday.

Vikings' Jordan Addison: Officially limited Wednesday
Rotowire
Addison (ankle) was listed as limited participant Wednesday on the Vikings' first Week 4 injury report.
Head coach Kevin O'Connell told Kevin Seifert of ESPN.com that Addison was a candidate to take part in Wednesday's walkthrough, which has come to pass. Addison is working his way back from a sprained right ankle that he suffered Week 1, and his return to the practice field is the first step as the team ramps up for Sunday's visit to Green Bay. Whether or not he enters the weekend with a designation for that contest will be revealed when Minnesota posts its final report of Week 4 on Friday.

Vikings' Jordan Addison: Out for Week 3
Rotowire
Addison (ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against Houston, Dane Mizutani of the St. Paul Pioneer Press reports.
Addison did some work on a side field this week, but he hasn't actually practiced since suffering an ankle sprain Week 1 against the Giants. His absence for a second straight game leaves Jalen Nailor and Brandon Powell as the top wide receivers alongside Justin Jefferson, who has avoided an injury designation after hurting his quadriceps last week. Coach Kevin O'Connell told Ben Goessling of the Minneapolis Star Tribune on Friday that Addison is "in a good place" and has a good chance to return Week 4 against Green Bay.
