After three straight weeks of low volume, Minnesota Vikings tight end T.J. Hockenson should not be relied upon in standard formats when his team plays host to the Chicago Bears in Week 11. The former Iowa Hawkeye is still playing a commanding number of snaps, but has just six catches in the past three weeks and ranks as the No. 24 overall PPR tight end. Given that he has been a top-five fantasy tight end twice with Minnesota, it's fair to say Hockenson has been among the bigger fantasy disappointments of the season thus far. The Bears rank 20th against PPR tight ends, though second-year quarterback J.J. McCarthy has consistently favored receiver Jalen Nailor, not Hockenson, as the team's third option behind receivers Justin Jefferson and Jordan Addison. Hockenson should only be considered a TE2 option in formats that play more than one tight end.

Coming off a career-best day in Week 10, Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Jalen Nailor is tough to trust in Week 11 with a fluctuating pass-catching role. The fourth-year pro broke out for 124 yards and a touchdown on only five catches last week against Baltimore, which bested fellow wide receivers Justin Jefferson and Jordan Addison. The Vikings consistently praise Nailor, who has a proven history of being a quality run blocker, special teamer, and making big catches when called upon. While first-time starting quarterback J.J. McCarthy seems to trust Nailor, his receiving workload hasn't been consistent enough to rely upon in most leagues. Nailor had three catches in the three weeks prior to his career day, and even against a lowly ranked Bears defense, he should be saved only for leagues with three-plus flex spots.

With the Minnesota Vikings struggling for consistency as they break in a young quarterback, wide receiver Jordan Addison is a fringe starting option in standard formats against the Chicago Bears in Week 11. The third-year man from USC looked to be developing a legitimate chemistry with quarterback J.J. McCarthy during training camp and the preseason, but that has yet to come to fruition in a regular-season game. Addison drew a whopping 11 targets last week, but caught only three for 35 yards as the Vikings tried and failed to make up a multi-score deficit in the fourth quarter against Baltimore. Since a 128-yard outburst against Philadelphia in Week 7, Addison has 109 receiving yards in the past three games combined. There is potential in the matchup against a Bears secondary that ranks 24th against PPR receivers, but Addison should be viewed as high-risk, high-reward WR3/flex, given the offense's unpredictability.

Minnesota Vikings running back Aaron Jones Sr. (shoulder, toe) doesn't carry an injury designation into Sunday's game against the Chicago Bears. Jones played through the same issues during last week's contest. He rushed nine times for 47 yards and scored a touchdown in the loss to the Baltimore Ravens. It doesn't appear the AC joint sprain is impacting his performance on the field. He was limited in practice this week until getting in a full session on Friday. Fantasy managers should consider Jones as a low-end RB2 for this upcoming Week 11 contest.

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Justin Jefferson is yet again a WR1 when the Vikings play host to the Chicago Bears in Week 11. The superstar has been quieter than normal during the past month as backup quarterback Carson Wentz and second-year starter J.J. McCarthy lead the charge for an up-and-down offense, but Jefferson still has been earning a ton of targets. McCarthy has targeted Jefferson 21 times in the past two weeks but only connected on 10, though the pair collaborated for a tide-turning touchdown in the first meeting against Chicago that sparked a fourth-quarter comeback. The Bears rank 24th against PPR receivers, offering a chance for Jefferson to break his cold streak. The Vikings likely will be erratic as they break in a 22-year-old QB, but the matchup and Jefferson's ability should have the superstar locked into lineups in all formats.

Minnesota Vikings running back Jordan Mason's evaporating workload in the Vikings' backfield has made the proposition of playing him difficult ahead of a Week 11 clash against the Chicago Bears. In two of the past three weeks, Mason has failed to reach five total carries. During the past two games, in particular, Aaron Jones Sr. has been the team's top option, commanding nearly three-quarters of the offensive snaps last week against Baltimore. Mason was a quality, if unremarkable, fantasy option when Jones was on injured reserve, but Jones' return has suggested less of a split than managers rostering Mason had hoped. Against a Bears defense squarely in the middle of the pack against fantasy running backs, Mason is a low-end RB4 option who will probably need some goalline work to make starting him worth the investment.

Will Reichard of the Minnesota Vikings should be considered one of the top fantasy kickers when his team takes on the Chicago Bears in Week 11. A top-10 overall fantasy kicker through the halfway point of the NFL season, Reichard has converted all 17 of his extra points and 18 of 20 field goals, including six of them from beyond 50 yards. The Bears are allowing the fourth-highest yards per carry average and surrendering passing touchdowns at the third-highest rate in the league, which could give an erratic Vikings offense an opportunity for a bounce-back week. In an indoor venue against a below-average defense, Reichard is ranked as RotoBaller's No. 4 kicker for Week 11.

Chicago Bears wide receiver Rome Odunze (ankle) has been removed from the injury report ahead of Sunday's Week 11 matchup against the Minnesota Vikings. Odunze missed Wednesday's practice due to a minor ankle issue. However, he was able to practice each of the next two days and has been cleared to play this weekend. Odunze bounced back last week with six receptions for 86 yards and a touchdown in the win over the New York Giants. He should offer high-end WR2 value for this upcoming matchup against the Vikings.

From RotoBaller

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Brian Thomas Jr. (ankle) is currently listed as questionable for the upcoming Week 11 matchup against the Los Angeles Chargers. Thomas is hopeful to get back on the field this weekend after sitting out last week's loss to the Houston Texans. Thomas was limited in practice all week due to a high-ankle sprain. If he plays, fantasy managers should view him as a WR2. Otherwise, Jakobi Meyers and Parker Washington will likely lead the passing attack.

From RotoBaller

Chicago Bears running back D'Andre Swift (hip) doesn't carry an injury designation into Sunday's game against the Minnesota Vikings. Swift was limited in practice to begin the week due to a hip issue. After that, Swift was able to get in two full practices which was enough to clear him for this contest. He figures to resume his role as the lead back, but Kyle Monangai has earned a bigger role in recent weeks. Last week, Swift rushed for 80 yards while hauling in five passes in the win over the New York Giants. He does enough to warrant starting as a RB2 for Week 11.

Los Angeles Chargers kicker Cameron Dicker, who has missed only two field goals all season, remains a highly accurate and reliable fantasy option. This week, he heads to Jacksonville, where the game is expected to be played in pleasant 77-degree sunny weather at kickoff, ideal conditions for a kicker. Against a Jacksonville Jaguars defense that has shown vulnerability to allowing points, Dicker should get multiple scoring opportunities. His consistent accuracy, combined with favorable game conditions, makes him a high-floor starter. Dicker is projected as K6 this week and is a must-start in all formats.

From RotoBaller

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Tez Johnson has made the most of his extra playing time over the last few weeks. Last week, Johnson hauled in four of his five targets for 42 yards with two touchdowns in the loss to the New England Patriots. The rookie wideout has four touchdowns over his last four games. He played a season-high 83 percent of the offensive snaps during last weekend's game. Johnson is earning the trust of the Bucs offense and his making the plays when called upon. Given his recent performances and the injuries to this roster, Johnson should be able to offer WR3 value for the upcoming Week 11 matchup against the Buffalo Bills.

From RotoBaller

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Quentin Johnston (shin) is listed as questionable heading into Week 11, but he put in a full practice on Friday, suggesting he is likely to play. Johnston led the team with 10 targets last week, finishing with five receptions for 42 yards. The Bolts' depleted offensive line is forcing Justin Herbert into quick throws, which has limited the deep connection with Johnston that we saw earlier in the season. Nonetheless, he faces a vulnerable Jacksonville Jaguars secondary that has allowed 31 receptions of 20 yards or more, which plays to Johnston's strengths. If cleared, he has a favorable matchup against CB Greg Newsome, who allows a 66.7% catch rate. Based on his recent target share and the matchup, Johnston is a viable boom-or-bust WR3 and is ranked as RotoBaller's WR26.

Seattle Seahawks rookie wide receiver Tory Horton (groin, shin) has been ruled out for a big Week 11 divisional contest this Sunday against the hosting Los Angeles Rams and will miss a second straight game, according to Michael-Shawn Dugar of The Athletic. Just when Horton seemed to be coming on strong for the Seahawks offense in his first year -- he had four catches for 48 yards and two touchdowns in his last game on Nov. 2 against the Washington Commanders -- he gets hurt. When the 22-year-old does return to action, he'll be contending with newcomer Rashid Shaheed for targets. Veteran Cooper Kupp is also back from his injury. Horton has caught only 13 passes for 161 yards on 22 targets in his eight games played, but he's managed to find the end zone five times. Head coach Mike Macdonald said Seattle could put Horton on Injured Reserve, which would require him to miss at least four games.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers tight end Cade Otton has been making the most of his extra targets lately. Last week, Otton saw 12 targets while hauling in a season-high nine passes for 82 yards in the loss to the New England Patriots. The handful of injuries to his offense has made Otton a viable option lately. Otton has been able to produce 40 receiving yards or more in each of his last five games. He has done enough on the field to warrant using as a low-end TE1 for the upcoming matchup against the Buffalo Bills.

Green Bay Packers running back Josh Jacobs has been as automatic a fantasy start as it gets this season, and that remains the case as the Packers travel to MetLife Stadium to face the New York Giants in Week 11. Jacobs has scored in every game this season but one and has been a top-10 fantasy running back in five of the last six weeks. While Jacobs hasn't posted a 100-yard game this season and averages just 68 rushing yards per game, fantasy managers are still beaming at just how inevitable Jacobs has been when it comes to scoring and his involvement in the Packers' offense. With the offensive game plan flowing through Jacobs and the run game each week, he's been the one constant this season for the Packers' offense. Against the New York Giants, who are last in the NFL in defensive EPA per rush attempt, Jacobs is a no-brainer lock for fantasy lineups in Week 11.

From RotoBaller

Green Bay Packers running back Emanuel Wilson has maintained a solid on-field role, but is just depth at the position when the Packers head to MetLife Stadium to play the New York Giants. While Wilson has seen his snap shares hover around the 32-percent mark in the previous three weeks leading up to Week 10, those snaps dropped to 20 percent against the Eagles on Monday Night Football. The Packers gave Josh Jacobs the bulk of the work on the ground, leaving Wilson to touch the ball just twice for four yards on a target and carry. Jacobs had been a regular sight on the Packers' injury report over the past few weeks, but was not on the report leading up to this week's game against the Giants. Wilson is merely a handcuff for Jacobs in the event he misses a game, but otherwise, leave Wilson on the waiver wire in Week 11.

From RotoBaller

Green Bay Packers tight end Luke Musgrave saw his on-field involvement in the Packers' offense jump up considerably and will look to take advantage of his playing time when the Packers head east to MetLife Stadium to face off against the New York Giants. Musgrave's routes and snaps jumped up considerably in the first game without Tucker Kraft after his season-ending injury. While Musgrave's 81 percent of routes per dropback and 76 percent snap share are great for a fantasy tight end, he's not used nearly enough in the passing game to warrant even a streaming start at tight end for fantasy managers. With the Giants allowing the 10th-fewest fantasy points per game to opposing tight ends, Musgrave isn't a recommended start in Week 11.

From RotoBaller

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Sterling Shepard hasn't been able to find much success over the last few weeks. Over the last two games, Shepard has been held to four receptions for 28 yards. He did post a seven-catch performance in Week 7, but has been a non-factor since then. It's tough to imagine Shepard being a viable option in most fantasy formats for the upcoming Week 11 matchup against the Buffalo Bills. He's clearly not normally a big part of the passing attack, so he shouldn't be viewed as anything more than a deep league option.

From RotoBaller

Green Bay Packers kicker Brandon McManus has been a hit-or-miss option for fantasy managers this season, but he'll look to right the ship when the Packers head east to MetLife Stadium to square off with the New York Giants in Week 11. McManus has missed at least one field goal in all three games since returning from a quad injury that sidelined him for a pair of games. He's made just 11-of-17 field goals this season after making 20-of-21 field goals last season when replacing Brayden Narveson early last season. McManus could be on the hot seat if he doesn't shore up his accuracy, which puts his fantasy value deep below the pool of rosterable kickers. For Week 11, McManus is somebody to leave on the waiver wire.
