Addison brought in two of three targets for 22 yards in the Vikings' 30-20 loss to the Rams on Thursday night.

EDGE Analysis

Addison was once again a bit player in the air attack, with the likes of Aaron Jones, Josh Oliver and Jalen Nailor all recording the same amount of receptions as the second-year wideout. Addison hasn't topped three receptions or 72 yards in any game this season, and he's now logged four or fewer targets in four of five contests. Addison's next opportunity to revert to his 2023 production comes in a favorable Week 9 home matchup against the Colts on Sunday night, Nov. 3.

Addison brought in three of four targets for 66 yards in the Vikings' 31-29 loss to the Lions on Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

Addison was third or tied for that slotting in receptions, receiving yards and targets for the Vikings on the afternoon, but that resulted in relatively unremarkable production. The second-year wideout did manage a game-long 51-yard reception, and Addison's numbers were a marked improvement over his 36-yard tally in Week 5 against the Jets. Addison has exactly three catches in each of his first four games heading into a Week 8 road matchup against the Rams on Thursday night.

Addison recorded three receptions on eight targets for 36 yards in Sunday's 23-17 win over the Jets.

EDGE Analysis

The short-term outcome wasn't positive for Addison, as he averaged an abysmal 4.5 yards per target. However, he became a more significant part of the offensive game plan by tallying a season-high eight targets. The Vikings will head into a Week 6 bye, but Addison should have a significant role in a pivotal Week 7 matchup in a divisional showdown with the Lions.

Addison brought in three of four targets for 72 yards and a touchdown and recorded a seven-yard score on his only rush attempt in the Vikings' 31-29 win over the Packers on Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

Making his return from a two-game absence due to an ankle injury, Addison wasted no time making an impact with a 29-yard touchdown grab to cap off the opening possession of the contest. He then stung the Packers defense on the ground, notching a seven-yard touchdown early in the second quarter. The second-year wideout, who played only 24 snaps in the season-opening victory over the Giants before suffering his injury, appears to be all the way back to full health heading into a Week 5 interconference clash with the Jets in London next Sunday.

Addison (ankle) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game at Green Bay, Ben Goessling of the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports.

EDGE Analysis

Addison will be active for the first time since suffering an ankle sprain in the third quarter of a Week 1 win over the Giants. His return will either push Jalen Nailor out of the regular rotation or bump Nailor down to the No. 3 role, with the latter scenario entailing a demotion for Brandon Powell. Either way, Minnesota's offense figures to be highly concentrated toward Addison, Justin Jefferson and RB Aaron Jones.

Addison (ankle) was limited at Thursday's practice.

EDGE Analysis

The Vikings held a walkthrough Wednesday, so Addison's listing of limited on the ensuing injury report was an estimate. With an appearance at an actual practice under his belt one day later, he now appears to be closing in on a return. In the end, Friday's report will unveil whether he goes into the weekend with a designation for Sunday's contest at Green Bay or cleared for his first game action since Week 1, when he initially sustained a right ankle sprain. For what it's worth, Addison told Dane Mizutani of the St. Paul Pioneer Press on Thursday that he expects to suit up Sunday.

Addison (ankle) was listed as limited participant Wednesday on the Vikings' first Week 4 injury report.

EDGE Analysis

Head coach Kevin O'Connell told Kevin Seifert of ESPN.com that Addison was a candidate to take part in Wednesday's walkthrough, which has come to pass. Addison is working his way back from a sprained right ankle that he suffered Week 1, and his return to the practice field is the first step as the team ramps up for Sunday's visit to Green Bay. Whether or not he enters the weekend with a designation for that contest will be revealed when Minnesota posts its final report of Week 4 on Friday.

Vikings head coach Kevin O'Connell said he expects Addison (ankle) to be listed as at least a partial participant in Wednesday's walk-through practice, Kevin Seifert of ESPN.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

According to Seifert, O'Connell is hopeful that Addison will put an end to his two-game absence in this Sunday's game against the Packers. The second-year wideout is expected to be listed as a limited participant upon the release of Wednesday's injury report, which would represent an upgrade after he failed to practice in any capacity since suffering the injury in the Week 1 win over the Giants. If he ultimately is able to play Sunday, Addison would primarily eat into the role of Jalen Nailor, who scored in both contests that Addison was sidelined.

Vikings head coach Kevin O'Connell said Monday that he's "optimistic" Addison (ankle) will be available to play Sunday in Green Bay, Andrew Krammer of the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports.

EDGE Analysis

While O'Connell's comments offer some encouragement, Addison's practice activity during the upcoming week will provide a clearer signal whether or not the receiver has a chance of suiting up against the Packers. Addison missed both of the Vikings' last two games after spraining his right ankle in the season-opening win over the Giants, and he has yet to take any practice reps since sustaining the injury.

Addison (ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against Houston, Dane Mizutani of the St. Paul Pioneer Press reports.

EDGE Analysis

Addison did some work on a side field this week, but he hasn't actually practiced since suffering an ankle sprain Week 1 against the Giants. His absence for a second straight game leaves Jalen Nailor and Brandon Powell as the top wide receivers alongside Justin Jefferson, who has avoided an injury designation after hurting his quadriceps last week. Coach Kevin O'Connell told Ben Goessling of the Minneapolis Star Tribune on Friday that Addison is "in a good place" and has a good chance to return Week 4 against Green Bay.
