Vikings kicker Will Reichard has been designated to return from injured reserve and is expected to kick against the Falcons this weekend. Despite missing the last four games due to a quad injury, Reichard ranks in the top 15 for fantasy points per game among kickers. However, it is recommended to wait at least one week before including him in fantasy lineups.

• Will Reichard's return is a positive sign for the Vikings' special teams.
• His fantasy ranking indicates he can be a valuable asset when healthy.
