Jordan Addison at Detroit — High-Upside Flex Option in Divisional Clash

Addison is cleared after being evaluated for a concussion late in Week 7, retaining his starting outside role opposite Justin Jefferson in Minnesota's undefeated passing attack. Operating alongside Jefferson and tight end T.J. Hockenson, Addison gives quarterback Kyler Murray a dangerous downfield weapon.

Traveling to Detroit for an indoor divisional clash, our models project Addison for roughly 10.3 fantasy points on nearly six targets and 46 receiving yards. Started in about 30% of fantasy leagues, he profiles as a boom-or-bust flex option whose weekly ceiling relies heavily on converting deep looks into scores.

Outlook Dylan Sampson

Dylan Sampson at Pittsburgh — Committee Role in a Low-Scoring Battle

After being activated from injured reserve, Dylan Sampson looked efficient in Week 7 with 77 total yards on nine touches. However, he was limited in practice with his knee issue and is officially questionable heading into Week 8. Operating behind starter Quinshon Judkins, Sampson's rotational work faces headwinds against a stingy front. Be sure to check back for updates on his status before kickoff.

Our weekly projections slate Sampson for 6.3 fantasy points, estimating roughly four carries for 17 yards and two catches for 15 yards. In an expected low-scoring divisional grind against Pittsburgh, his scoring upside is minimal without goal-line involvement. He is worth stashing in deeper leagues, but fantasy managers should leave him on the bench.
