Vikings' Myles Price: Returns kicks
Price recorded five kickoff returns for 179 yards and one punt return for 13 yards in Sunday's 39-22 win over the Packers.
The wide receiver also played on three offensive snaps but did not record a target. The second-year pro has yet to record a catch in his NFL career, but he seems to have a role as a returner.

Vikings' Josh Oliver: Catches two passes in Week 1 win
Oliver logged two catches (on four targets) for 22 yards during the Vikings' 39-22 win over the Packers on Sunday.
Oliver was listed as the Vikings' co-starter at tight end alongside T.J. Hockenson, with the duo playing 40-plus snaps each in Sunday's win. Oliver's four targets ended up being third most on the Vikings behind Hockenson (five) and Justin Jefferson (nine), though Oliver figures to serve in a complementary role in the passing game and primarily as a blocker. Oliver and the Vikings will hit the road for a Week 2 tilt against the Bears on Sept. 20.

Vikings' Jauan Jennings: Blanked in Minnesota debut
Jennings did not bring in his lone target during the Vikings' 39-22 win over the Packers on Sunday.
Kyler Murray's first pass attempt of the game was to Jennings, resulting in a Keisean Nixon interception that led to a 59-yard field goal from Trey Smack six plays later. Jennings didn't see another pass the rest of the way, even after Carson Wentz took over as the Vikings' QB for Murray after the latter left the game due to a concussion. Jennings' 31 snaps on offense were third most among wide receivers behind Justin Jefferson and Jordan Addison, but the lack of offensive output from Jennings was disappointing given the solid production he had with the 49ers in 2024 and 2025. He'll look for better results in the Vikings' Week 2 clash Sept. 20 against a Bears defense that gave up 361 passing yards to Bryce Young in a 59-37 Week 1 win.

Vikings' Aaron Jones: Cashes in with TD in Week 1
Jones had 12 carries for 40 yards and one touchdown and didn't catch his only target during Sunday's 39-22 win against the Packers.
Jones started and played 30 of 65 offensive snaps, while position mate Jordan Mason came off the bench and logged 29 such snaps. Because Mason was able to rip off a 28-yard run in the fourth quarter, his 15 rushes went for 59 yards, and, like Jones, the former scored a TD from inside the 5-yard line. In order to keep the 31-year old fresh, the Vikings likely will continue on with a timeshare in the backfield during the 2026 season, though Mason's sore thumb could mean a bit more work for Jones in the short term.

Vikings' Jordan Mason: Nursing sore thumb after Week 1
Vikings head coach Kevin O'Connell said Monday that Mason is being further evaluated after experiencing thumb soreness coming out of Sunday's 39-22 win over the Packers, Alec Lewis of The Athletic reports.
Mason (30 of 65 offensive snaps) and Aaron Jones (29 snaps) had a near-even split of the backfield reps Week 1, with the former leading the ground attack with 59 yards and a touchdown on 15 carries while going without a target. The 27-year-old apparently hurt his thumb at some point during the contest, but the Vikings haven't yet indicated that the injury is anything more than a day-to-day concern. Mason will likely be put through more tests before the Vikings have a clearer picture of his status heading into a Week 2 matchup with the Bears.

Vikings' Kyler Murray: In concussion protocol, day-to-day
Vikings head coach Kevin O'Connell said Monday that Murray is in concussion protocol and will be evaluated day by day leading up Sunday's road game in Chicago, Alec Lewis of The Athletic reports.
In his Vikings debut during Sunday's 39-22 win over Green Bay, Murray completed three of five passes for 18 yards and an interception and ran twice for nine yards before being ruled out after sustaining the head injury when he was crunched between a pair of Packers defenders in the first quarter. Carson Wentz came on in relief and performed admirably to lead the Vikings to a come-from-behind victory, and with Murray facing an uphill battle to clear the five-step protocol before the weekend, Wentz will be the likely starter for the matchup with the Bears. On a positive note, Stefanski said that Murray is feeling better and was able to participate in meetings and watch film Monday, but Murray will still need his concussion symptoms to dissipate before he's able to do any on-field work.

Vikings' Will Reichard: Makes all five kicks in Week 1
Reichard converted his lone field-goal attempts and four PATs in Sunday's 39-22 win over the Packers.
Reichard got the scoring started for Minnesota with a 38-yard field goal in the first quarter. With a 25-22 lead early in the fourth quarter, coach Kevin O'Connell passed on a PAT and instead opted to go for two following a Justin Jefferson touchdown. Reichard has been a top-eight fantasy kicker in each of the previous two seasons, as he's 58-for-66 on field-goal tries and a perfect 73-for-73 on extra points since entering the NFL in 2024.

Vikings' T.J. Hockenson: Catches touchdown in Week 1
Hockenson caught four of five targets for 36 yards and a touchdown in the Vikings' 39-22 win over the Packers on Sunday.
Justin Jefferson easily paced the Vikings with nine targets on 24 total pass attempts, but Hockenson was second on the team with his five looks. His 16-yard touchdown in the third quarter pulled Minnesota within five points to make it 22-17 in favor of Green Bay. Hockenson averaged a career-low 29.2 yards per game last season, but improved quarterback play and being another year removed from ACL surgery has the veteran tight end potentially undervalued in fantasy this season.

Vikings' Jordan Mason: Scores short TD in Week 1 win
Mason rushed 15 times for 59 yards and a touchdown but wasn't targeted in Sunday's 39-22 win over the Packers.
Mason had three more carries than Aaron Jones, and neither of Minnesota's top two running backs recorded a catch. Jones and Mason each had a short touchdown run as the Vikings compiled 22 unanswered fourth-quarter points, with Mason's coming on a one-yard run with 4:48 to play. Mason set a career high with six rushing touchdowns during the 2025 regular season while rushing for 758 yards in his first year with the Vikings following a three-year stint in San Francisco. Jones and Mason are expected to split carries again in Week 2 at Chicago.

Vikings' Carson Wentz: Throws three TDs after Murray injury
Wentz completed 12 of 19 passes for 133 yards and three touchdowns after replacing Kyler Murray (concussion) in the first quarter of Sunday's 39-22 win over the Packers. Wentz also rushed five times for minus-1 yard and threw a successful two-point conversion.
Wentz was ready to play after Murray's first-quarter exit, and the veteran backup orchestrated an impressive comeback, during which the Vikings scored 22 unanswered fourth-quarter points. Wentz connected with Justin Jefferson for a 39-yard touchdown in the second quarter and a nine-yard touchdown in the fourth, sandwiched around a 16-yard touchdown pass to T.J. Hockenson in the third quarter. If Murray doesn't clear concussion protocol in time to face the Bears on the road in Week 2, Wentz would presumably be tabbed for the start over J.J. McCarthy.

Vikings' Jordan Addison: No catches in Week 1
Addison failed to record a catch on two targets in Sunday's 39-22 win over the Packers.
Addison was second on the team with his 28 routes, but his two targets were a distant fourth on the Vikings, trailing Justin Jefferson (nine), T.J. Hockenson (five) and Josh Oliver (four). Kyler Murray (concussion) was knocked out of the game in the first half, giving way to Carson Wentz, who had eyes for Jefferson and his tight ends. Addison gets a great on-paper matchup with the Bears' leaky secondary next Sunday, but the wideout will be hard to trust for fantasy lineups.

Vikings' Justin Jefferson: Two TDs from Wentz after Kyler exits
Jefferson caught eight of nine targets for 92 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 39-22 win over the Packers. He also caught a successful two-point conversion.
Jefferson kept the Vikings within striking distance with a 39-yard touchdown catch just after the two-minute warning in the first half, and he put the exclamation point on Minnesota's 22-0 fourth-quarter run with a nine-yard touchdown catch in the fourth quarter. Both of those touchdown passes came on passes from Carson Wentz, as Kyler Murray (concussion) exited the game in the first quarter. Jefferson's two touchdowns Sunday matched his 2025 season total across 17 games, but the 27-year-old wide receiver has a pair of 10-touchdown regular seasons in his career. If Murray doesn't pass concussion protocol before a Week 2 road game against the Bears, Wentz would likely get the start over J.J. McCarthy.
