Jordan Addison, wide receiver for the Minnesota Vikings, has been a consistent fantasy performer leading up to Week 17. Over his past three games, he has accumulated 231 receiving yards on 20 receptions (29 targets) and scored four touchdowns, averaging 15.7 fantasy points per game in PPR formats.
In Week 17, the Vikings face the Green Bay Packers, whose defense has allowed the ninth-fewest passing yards per game (209.7) this season. However, the potential absence of Packers’ defensive back Jaire Alexander (knee) could provide Addison with more favorable matchups.
Addison’s recent performance includes five receptions for 35 yards and a touchdown in Week 16, marking his seventh touchdown in the past eight games. He has seen at least eight targets in five of his last six contests, indicating a significant role in the Vikings’ passing attack.
Fantasy projections for Week 17 estimate Addison to score approximately 13.9 PPR points, with a stat line around 4.2 receptions for 57.3 yards and 0.5 touchdowns.
Given his consistent involvement and the potential for increased opportunities against a possibly weakened Packers secondary, Addison is considered a low-end WR2 for Week 17. Fantasy managers should feel confident starting him, especially with the Vikings’ offense likely to exploit any defensive gaps presented by Green Bay
