"Minnesota has receivers Justin Jefferson and Jordan Addison, but attention paid to them was bound to mean one-on-one opportunities for Jalen Nailor, who had clearly ascended into the No. 3 receiver role. Without tight end T.J. Hockenson in the fold, he was going to be one of the primary targets. The Vikings need him to stay healthy, and they believe that if he does, he’ll put up solid numbers."

"Nailor constantly wowed Vikings personnel in OTAs and training camp, then injured his leg. Hamstring and groin pain slowed his progress. A concussion kept him out of the final four weeks last season."

"Really for the first time on Sunday against the 49ers, the Vikings might *need* Nailor. The Vikings don’t have Hockenson to help out Jefferson. Nor do they have another productive pass catcher like K.J. Osborn who left in free agency last spring."

The Coachspeak Index
#Vikings HC Kevin O’Connell on Jalen “Speedy” Nailor:

“I just was really, really happy just how fast he played. Even routes he didn’t necessarily get targeted, you’re seeing the separation, you’re seeing him win versus man coverage, you’re seeing him play really multiple spots”

He should be added. He’s being used and the offense is elite in 2024. I use that term loosely

I had to choose between Nailor, Whittington and Jennings to start in the flex this week. Went Nailor. May be a mistake but I think he ends up with the most points.

I'm also having to go with Nailor. I have a certain level of confidence in him this week to get at least 10 fantasy points. That's probably his floor.

Thank you Jalen you TD machine!

I mean, kind of hard to ignore a Touchdown in 3 straight games. If he was any other player, he'd be getting way more hype.

**** it, I'm in. If he's available anywhere that is. Reports in camp were saying he looked great.

I've been skeptical of Vikings GM but this 6th round pick from their 1st draft with him among other things has me feeling good about him now.

I'll also say: Jalen Nailor has looked freaking great. Cannot overstate how important he's been from separation standpoint w/ out Addison and Hockenson.

But it looks like Jennings did better. Oh well.
