Addison is tied for the rookie lead in touchdowns and receiving yards, trailing only Puka Nacua. He has developed into an excellent complement to Justin Jefferson and performed admirably during Jefferson’s absence earlier this year.
The Vikings will want Addison on the field against the Green Bay Packers on Sunday night. Both teams are 7-8 in the latest installment of the great NFC North rivalry, which will serve as an NFC playoff eliminator. The Vikings defeated the Packers in their first meeting in October.
Minnesota has lost four of its last five games following a five-game winning streak. The loss of quarterback Kirk Cousins to an Achilles tendon tear did not help.
The Vikings have made another quarterback change for Sunday, with rookie Jaren Hall taking over for Nick Mullens. This season, Minnesota used four different quarterbacks, with Addison catching touchdown passes from Cousins and Mullens.
Jordan Addison has one more full practice opportunity, and the extra time with the Sunday night game ensures that he will have every opportunity to suit up for the Vikings. Addison has the potential to make a significant impact on the game and fantasy football championships across the country.
