Minnesota Vikings DVOA, Stats, & NFL Rankings

New York Giants quarterback Daniel Jones heads into Week 10 against the Carolina Panthers looking to build on a solid performance in Week 9, where he rushed for his first touchdown of the season and threw for two scores in a 27-22 loss to the Commanders. Jones has tallied 1,880 passing yards, eight touchdowns, and five interceptions this season, but he's still without a 300-yard game. Facing Carolina's 25th-ranked pass defense, which allows 232.6 passing yards per game and has surrendered 18 touchdown passes on the season, Jones has a favorable matchup for fantasy production. Although Jones ranks 27th in fantasy points per game (16.21), the Panthers' defense has allowed an average of 19.28 points per game to opposing quarterbacks, suggesting a potential opportunity for Jones to deliver a strong fantasy outing in Munich.

Minnesota Vikings tight end T.J. Hockenson gets a juicy matchup this weekend when his team takes on the Jacksonville Jaguars in a road matchup. The Iowa product returned to action last weekend for the first time since injuring his ACL a season ago to put up 27 yards on 3-of-4 receiving in the Vikings' win over the Indianapolis Colts. Hockenson played eight fewer snaps than teammate Josh Oliver (41), who had a strong outing of his own (5/58/1). However, it's excellent news that the 27-year-old came away from the outing without a setback, and his snap counts and usage are likely to rise over the coming weeks as he gets more acclimated to action. Still, fantasy managers may want to give him another week before slotting the veteran into their lineups if they have a better option -- despite the fantastic matchup. He's RotoBaller's TE13 in PPR formats in this week's rankings.

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Jalen Nailor will line up against the Jacksonville Jaguars this coming Sunday. The third-year wideout had a few helpful fantasy performances earlier this season but has largely been an afterthought in the Vikings' offense in recent weeks. With the return of tight end T.J. Hockenson, Nailor is likely the fourth or fifth option in Minnesota's passing attack, with fellow WRs Justin Jefferson, Jordan Addison, and running back Aaron Jones all pacing him in target thus far. Even in an excellent matchup against the Jaguars defense, the 25-year-old is little more than a touchdown-dependent desperation play this Sunday. Nailor ranks as RotoBaller's PPR WR61 ahead of this weekend.

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Jordan Addison will face off against the Jacksonville Jaguars this Sunday in Week 10. It's been a bit of a sophomore slump for Addison this season, as he is averaging just over three catches and 45.5 yards per game with two touchdowns in six contests. He had a nice outing last weekend, reeling in all five of his targets for 42 yards and a touchdown against a porous Colts defense. He may do so again in another intriguing matchup against a lowly Jaguars defensive unit that's given up the third-most fantasy points to wide receivers in 2024. Still, as the matchup does not project to be a shootout with quarterback Trevor Lawrence (shoulder) trending in the wrong direction, fantasy managers could be disappointed with Addison's performance if he doesn't hit pay dirt. The 22-year-old is RotoBaller's PPR WR33 heading into Week 10.

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Justin Jefferson gets another enticing matchup this Sunday when his team takes on the Jacksonville Jaguars in a road tilt. The 25-year-old superstar is averaging 97.9 receiving yards per contest in 2024 and stands an excellent chance to match or surpass that total against a woeful Jaguars pass defense. Jacksonville is the second-worst team against the pass on a per-play basis, letting up 7.3 yards per attempt to their opponents. Additionally, they've allowed 19 touchdowns through the air while intercepting just two passes on the season. The former LSU Tiger is again an elite WR option and should challenge as the WR1 overall on the week. He's RotoBaller's top PPR play at the position in Week 10.
