The Minnesota Vikings have placed wide receiver Justin Jefferson on injured reserve due to a hamstring injury. He will miss at least the next four games, leaving a significant number of targets for his teammates. Rookie wide receiver Jordan Addison becomes a weekly starting candidate, as he drew a season-high 9 targets in the last game. Additionally, wide receiver K.J. Osborn is worth picking up in many leagues. The Vikings' offensive approach may shift with Jefferson's absence, potentially leading to more focus on the running game. Quarterback Kirk Cousins loses upside without Jefferson but has a favorable matchup against the Bears in the first game without him.
