Addison's Hamstring Injury: Vikings WR Status Uncertain
11 Oct
Summary
- Jordan Addison is questionable for Sunday's game due to a hamstring injury.
- Odell Beckham Jr. and Jeshaun Jones were elevated from the practice squad.
- T.J. Hockenson is a strong prop bet due to receiver injuries.
Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Jordan Addison is currently listed as questionable for the team's Week 5 matchup against the New Orleans Saints. He is dealing with a hamstring injury, which will be assessed pre-game. His availability, alongside Justin Jefferson's ankle injury, will determine if they can play on Sunday, making Addison a true game-time decision.
In preparation for potential receiver shortages, Minnesota elevated Odell Beckham Jr. and Jeshaun Jones from their practice squad on Saturday. Addison, a former first-round pick, has been a significant offensive presence, playing 91.7 percent of snaps. Through four games in 2026, he recorded 11 catches for 163 yards and one touchdown.
Given the receiver uncertainty, tight end T.J. Hockenson is being considered for prop bets. He had a strong performance last week with 13 catches for 119 yards and has consistently played over 76 percent of offensive snaps. With the Saints ranking 28th in EPA/Pass, Hockenson could see increased targets if Addison or Jefferson are sidelined.
