Vikings' Jalen Nailor: Big gain on one catch
Nailor secured one of two targets for 31 yards and netted no gain on one punt return in the Vikings' 31-29 win over the Packers on Sunday.
Nailor shifted to the No. 3 receiver role due to Jordan Addison returning from a two-game absence due to an ankle issue, but the former still made an impact on his one catch. The 2022 sixth-round pick saw his season-opening touchdown streak snapped at three games, but given his speed, Nailor should continue seeing a small share of complementary targets from Sam Darnold overseas in a London battle against the Jets in Week 5.

Vikings' Jalen Nailor: Scores again in Sunday's win
Nailor caught three of four targets for 31 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 34-7 win over the Texans.
While he didn't see big volume once again, even with Jordan Addison (ankle) sidelined, Nailor still extended his season-opening TD streak to three games with a four-yard reception from Sam Darnold in the third quarter. Nailor has yet to see more than four targets in a game, so his production so far has been almost entirely dependent on his trips to the end zone, but he'll look to hit pay dirt again in Week 4 against the Packers.

Vikings' Jalen Nailor: Another TD in Week 2 win
Nailor secured three of four targets for 54 yards and a touchdown in the Vikings' 23-17 win over the 49ers on Sunday.
Nailor finished second in receiving yards to Justin Jefferson (quadriceps) and recorded his second touchdown in as many weeks to open the campaign on a 10-yard grab just past the midway point of the third quarter. Nailor had a chance for additional opportunity with Jordan Addison (ankle) missing the contest altogether and Jefferson exiting late in the third quarter, and if at least one is out for a Week 3 home showdown against the Texans, he could serve as the No. 2 wideout for Sam Darnold in what could be a high-scoring contest.

Vikings' Jalen Nailor: Scores TD in season opener
Nailor had one reception (on one target) for a 21-yard touchdown in Sunday's win over the Giants.
Nailor played just 26 of 55 snaps on offense and was out-snapped by Brandon Powell (30 snaps) even though he had clearly won the No. 3 receiver role in the preseason. The Vikings may have capped Nailor's snaps after he had a sore ankle that limited him in practice last week. If he's fully healthy, he could have a much larger role in the offense next week against the 49ers if Jordan Addison misses time with an ankle injury.

Vikings' Jalen Nailor: Good to go
Nailor (ankle) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game at the Giants.
Nailor followed the same practice pattern as Jordan Addison (ankle), closing out the week with a full session after being limited Wednesday and Thursday. Nailor is expected to open the season as Minnesota's No. 3 wide receiver, but it's not clear exactly what that will mean in terms of his quantity of snaps and targets. Last year, K.J. Osborn handled the No. 3 WR role in coach Kevin O'Connell's offense and averaged just 4.7 targets per game even though the Vikings averaged 37.1 pass attempts and Justin Jefferson missed a large chunk of the season.

Vikings' Jalen Nailor: Limited again Thursday
Nailor (ankle) practiced on a limited basis Thursday.
The Vikings' Week 1 injury report includes just two players, but the other one aside from Nailor is Jordan Addison (ankle). Both wide receivers have operated with caps on their practice reps Wednesday and Thursday, but coach Kevin O'Connell has acknowledged that Nailor is a few days behind Addison in his recovery, per Alec Lewis of The Athletic. Friday's report may provide clarity into whether one or both of them is on track to suit up Sunday at the Giants.

Vikings' Jalen Nailor: Officially limited Wednesday
Nailor (ankle) was a limited practice participant Wednesday.
Mere hours after head coach Kevin O'Connell told Dane Mizutani of the St. Paul Pioneer Press that Nailor may have a cap on his reps Wednesday due to an ankle injury, the third-year receiver upheld that comment. Both Jordan Addison (ankle) and Nailor are in the same boat this week, so their activity levels will be monitored over the next two days to get a sense of their respective chances of playing in Sunday's season opener at the Giants. Nailor is entering the 2024 campaign as the Vikings' No. 3 wideout behind Justin Jefferson and Addison, but in 21 career appearances so far, he's managed just 12 catches (on 19 targets) for 228 yards and one touchdown.

Vikings' Jalen Nailor: Dealing with ankle injury
Nailor is dealing with an ankle injury and may have practice limitations this week, Dane Mizutani of the St. Paul Pioneer Press reports.
Head coach Kevin O'Connell suggested Wednesday that he won't have a good idea until later in the week about the wideout's availability for Sunday's season opener at the Giants. After missing most of last season with hamstring injuries and then a concussion, Nailor seemingly won Minnesota's No. 3 receiver job this summer, emerging ahead of Brandon Powell, Trishton Jackson and Trent Sherfield. The good news for Minnesota is that O'Connell sounded more optimistic about the status of No. 2 receiver Jordan Addison, who has been bothered by an ankle sprain since mid-August.
