Vikings' Will Reichard: Glued to sideline in shutout loss
Reichard didn't attempt a field goal in the Vikings' 26-0 loss to the Seahawks on Sunday.
Reichard showed up and handled one kickoff, collected his game check and hopped on the team flight home, as the Vikings mustered literally zero offense. On the season, Reichard has made 21 of 23 field-goal attempts and all 19 of his extra-point tries. In this horrendous Minnesota offense, Reichard is not a recommended fantasy kicker.

Vikings' Jordan Addison: Inefficient with 10 targets Sunday
Addison finished with five receptions on 10 targets for 36 yards in Sunday's 26-0 loss to Seattle.
Third-string QB Max Brosmer struggled to deliver the ball to his top receivers in the first start of his career, instead throwing four picks while limiting WR Justin Jefferson to a career-low four yards. Addison led the Vikings in targets (10), but his quarterback's erratic play resulted in a forgettable line outside of PPR formats. It was, however, a marked improvement over the bagel the 23-year-old posted in last week's box score versus the Packers. Minnesota's entire passing attack takes a major hit with Brosmer under center, even with how poorly J.J. McCarthy (concussion) has played up until this point, so Addison's value will improve from poor to risky if his starting quarterback can return against Washington next Sunday.

Vikings' T.J. Hockenson: Leading receiver in shutout loss
Hockenson corralled all six of his targets for 59 yards in Sunday's 26-0 loss to the Seahawks.
Hockenson was the lone bright spot for Minnesota's passing offense after converting all of his targets into a team-high 59 yards. The 27-year-old tied his previous season best with six receptions, while the yardage did represent a new high-water mark in an otherwise disappointing campaign. With a 44-358-2 receiving line through 12 starts, Hockenson is providing the bare minimum at a shallow fantasy position for managers this season. That said, he offers little upside against the Commanders next Sunday.

Vikings' Zavier Scott: Thrust into more prominent role
Scott rushed three times for 17 yards and caught his only target for four yards in Sunday's 26-0 loss to Seattle.
Scott was thrust into a more significant role in the second half against the Seahawks after Aaron Jones (shoulder) exited the game and did not return. Scott hadn't garnered a carry since Week 8, and he was able to produce an inspiring 5.7 yards per tote in Week 13. If Jones is forced to miss any action moving forward, Scott will likely operate as the team's primary pass-catching back while in a timeshare with Jordan Mason in Minnesota's backfield.

Vikings' Jordan Mason: Takes over for injured starter
Mason took six carries for 47 yards while catching his only target for one yard in Sunday's 26-0 loss to the Seahawks.
Mason took over lead back duties after starter Aaron Jones (shoulder) exited the contest early in the second half. The 26-year-old Mason finished as Minnesota's leading rusher after gashing Seattle's defense on limited opportunities. It is currently unclear if Jones will be forced to miss any time with the shoulder injury, but fantasy managers should monitor the situation after Mason thrived in the starter's absence earlier in the schedule. Minnesota's backup averaged 15.0 carries for 70.5 yards with four touchdowns scored in four spot-starts spanning Weeks 3 through 7. If Jones were to miss next Sunday's matchup against Washington, then Mason would instantly become a hot waiver target in Week 14.

Vikings' Justin Jefferson: Career-low yardage Sunday
Jefferson was held to two receptions on four targets for four yards in Sunday's 26-0 loss to Seattle.
The Vikings were forced to turn to undrafted rookie Max Brosmer with starter J.J. McCarthy (concussion) unavailable and backup Carson Wentz (shoulder) on injured reserve. The end result was even worse than expected with the third-stringer under center after Jefferson finished the shutout loss with a career-low four receiving yards. The horrid quarterback situation in Minnesota has damaged its star wideout's fantasy value in addition to its playoff hopes. The remaining hope for Jefferson's fantasy managers is that McCarthy can clear the league's concussion protocol by next Sunday's matchup against the Commanders, as he at least possesses the arm strength to take shots down the field towards his superstar receiver.

Vikings' Aaron Jones: Will have shoulder evaluated
Jones will have his shoulder injury evaluated further, head coach Kevin O'Connell said after Sunday's 26-0 loss to the Seahawks, Ben Goessling of The Minnesota Star Tribune reports.
Jones exited in the second half due to a shoulder injury and didn't return to the game. Prior to getting hurt, he rushed six times for three yards, caught all four of his targets for 22 yards and lost a fumble. If Jones is unable to play against the Commanders in Week 14, Jordan Mason would likely lead Minnesota's backfield, with Zavier Scott working in a change-of-pace role.

Vikings' Max Brosmer: Picked off four times in shutout
Brosmer completed 19 of 30 pass attempts for 126 yards and four interceptions while losing one yard on his only carry in Sunday's 26-0 loss to Seattle.
The undrafted rookie got the nod under center for the Vikings with both J.J. McCarthy (concussion) and Carson Wentz (shoulder) sidelined for a brutal road matchup against the Seahawks. Brosmer played like a third-string quarterback by committing four turnovers, the first of which was returned for a touchdown in the second quarter. The 24-year-old struggled to develop chemistry with superstar WR Justin Jefferson, completing just two passes for four yards on four looks to his top target. Brosmer did little in Sunday's shutout to generate a potential quarterback controversy once McCarthy is cleared for action. If the latter clears the league's concussion protocol ahead of next Sunday's tilt versus Washington, then Brosmer will surely be sent back to the bench.

Vikings' Ryan Kelly: Suffered flexor injury
Kelly suffered a hip flexor injury in Sunday's 26-0 loss to Seattle, Ben Goessling of The Minnesota Star Tribune reports.
Kelly exited the game in the second half with a hip issue, which is now understood to be a flexor problem. The 32-year-old will be reevaluated in the coming days, but if he is forced to miss any action moving forward, Michael Jurgens could stand to operate as the team's starting center.

Vikings' Ryan Kelly: Exits with hip injury
Kelly (hip) has been ruled out of Sunday's game against the Seahawks,Alec Lewis of The Athletic reports.
Kelly just returned to the active roster from the injured reserve this week, and will just as quickly have to exit the field of play. Michael Jurgens will resume his recent role as the center for the Vikings offense.

Vikings' Aaron Jones: Exits with shoulder injury
Jones suffered a shoulder injury during Sunday's contest at Seattle, Kevin Seifert of ESPN.com reports.
Jones landed hard on his shoulder while getting tackled at the end of a three-yard catch in the middle of the third quarter, and he lost a fumble in the process. He's been listed on Vikings injury reports with a shoulder issue since being diagnosed with an AC joint sprain after Week 9 action, but he's been able to suit up for four straight games until potentially aggravating it Sunday. Jordan Mason will man the backfield for as long as Jones is sidelined.

Vikings' Theo Jackson: Won't play Week 13
Jackson (neck) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Seahawks.
Jackson was able to play through a neck injury in Weeks 11 and 12, but the fourth-year safety has not been cleared to play in Sunday's road game. Tavierre Thomas and Fabian Moreau are the top candidates to see more snaps at the slot corner position in Jackson's absence.

Vikings' Jalen Redmond: Cleared to play vs. Seattle
Redmond (hip) is active for Sunday's game against the Seahawks.
Redmond ended the week with back-to-back limited practices due to a hip injury, but he has been cleared to play Sunday after going through pregame warmups. The second-year pro has accumulated 40 tackles (23 solo), including 4.0 sacks, three pass defenses and one forced fumble through 11 regular-season games.

Vikings' Jonathan Greenard: Good to go Week 13
Greenard (shoulder) is active for Sunday's game against the Seahawks.
Greenard has been cleared to return Sunday from a two-game absence due to a shoulder injury, which means Dallas Turner will likely revert to a rotational role at edge rusher. Prior to his injury, Greenard accumulated 31 tackles (19 solo), including 2.0 sacks, three pass defenses and one forced fumble across nine regular-season games.

Vikings' Josh Metellus: Will play vs. Seattle
Metellus (knee) is active for Sunday's game against the Seahawks.
Metellus was limited in practice during Week 13 prep due to a knee injury that he likely sustained during the Vikings' Week 12 loss to the Packers. However, he's been given the green light to play Sunday after going through pregame warmups and will start at safety alongside Harrison Smith while Jay Ward provides depth at the position.

Vikings' Christian Darrisaw: Inactive for Week 13
Darrisaw (foot) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Seahawks.
Darrisaw will miss his third game of the season due to injury. The left tackle was only able to log a single limited practice this week on Friday, and it appears that was not sufficient for him to be able to suit up Sunday. Justin Skule will likely get the start at left tackle in Darrisaw's absence.

Vikings' Adam Thielen: Healthy scratch Week 13
Thielen (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Seahawks.
The veteran wide receiver's role in the offense has noticeably dipped since the Vikings' Week 6 bye, and Thielen will be an observer for Sunday's road game in Seattle. His absence means Tai Felton and Myles Price will be the rotational wideouts for the Vikings behind Justin Jefferson, Jordan Addison and Jalen Nailor. Thielen's next opportunity to play is Week 14 against the Commanders on Sunday, Dec. 7, though he's unlikely to play in that game unless there is an injury to the Vikings' wide receiver corps.
