Justin Jefferson

The Vikings are still waiting to hear from the league on whether or not Addison will face a suspension for a misdemeanor DUI citation he received in 2024. Nailor posted a 7-106-3 line in nearly three full games without Addison last season and had a career-high 28-414-6 line while playing in all 17 games. It's hard to imagine Nailor having much fantasy upside in place of Addison, especially if Justin Jefferson and T.J. Hockenson are healthy, but he could make for an interesting dart throw late in drafts after going for 50-plus yards four games last season.

McCarthy told Kay Adams on Monday that Minnesota coaches had not named him the starter after the team said last week it would not pursue Aaron Rodgers "at this time." Coming off a knee injury that cost him his entire rookie campaign, McCarthy appears to be the favorite for the team's Week 1 starting job. His recovery and performance in training camp could complicate things, however. NFL Network reported last week that the Vikings had rejected trade calls for McCarthy this offseason. McCarthy would certainly be set up for success in Kevin O'Connell's QB-friendly system: The pass-catching trio of Justin Jefferson, Jordan Addison, and TJ Hockenson represent one of the best in the league.

They were teammates at LSU.
