2024 Fantasy Outlook
A 2022 sixth-round pick, Nailor has run just 77 routes through two seasons but has made the most of his limited opportunities with 12 catches for 208 yards and a touchdown on 19 targets. Hamstring and head injuries limited him to six games last year, and he took 67 of his 94 offensive snaps for the season during a Week 10 win over New Orleans. He'll compete with Brandon Powell and Trent Sherfield for the third receiver role in training camp. Read Past Outlooks
RANKS
One reception in win
Nailor had one reception for five yards in Monday's win over Chicago.
ANALYSIS
Nailor had his first reception in two games, as he's become a distant fourth among the Vikings' receiving options since the return of T.J. Hockenson. He's still getting plenty of playing time as the No. 3 receiver, however, as he played 41 of the offense's 77 snaps.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Will be WR2 again
Nailor will be the No. 2 wideout behind Justin Jefferson for Sunday's game against the Texans after Jordan Addison was ruled out due to an ankle injury, Alec Lewis of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
With Addison out for a second straight week due to an ankle injury, Nailor will once again step into a larger role in the Vikings' offense. Nailor has caught a touchdown pass in each of the first two games of the regular season, and in Minnesota's Week 2 win over San Francisco, he registered three catches on four targets for 54 yards and a touchdown. Nailor should continue to see more open space in the passing game while the Texans' secondary hones in on Jefferson.
