Vikings' Jalen Nailor: Suffers leg injury
Nailor is considered day-to-day after injuring his leg during training camp Saturday, Alec Lewis of The Athletic reports.
Coach Kevin O'Connell believes Nailor will be back shortly. The 24-year-old wideout didn't see the field a ton in last year's campaign but hauled in seven passes for 151 yards and a touchdown during the last two weeks of the season. Once healthy, Nailor is expected to compete with Jalen Reagor and Brandon Powell for one of the team's final roster spots.

Vikings' Jalen Nailor: Has four receptions in win
Nailor reeled in four of five targets for 62 yards during Sunday's 29-13 win versus the Bears.
Nailor got playing time in the second half after starters were rested ahead of the playoffs. Nailor has seven receptions for 151 yards and a touchdown in his last two games. Although almost all his playing time was in garbage time, he still showed enough to put him in a good spot to compete for a larger role in 2023.

Vikings' Jalen Nailor: Catches long TD in garbage time
Nailor had three receptions for 89 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's loss at Green Bay.
Nailor played nine snaps on offense, but almost all of them came late in the game when the Vikings were resting their starters amid a blowout loss (including his 47-yard touchdown), so don't read too much into his performance. However, he could become a focus of the passing game Week 18 if the Vikings bench their starters early in the game or rest them completely ahead of the playoffs.

Vikings' Jalen Nailor: Not listed on first injury report
Nailor (illness) is not listed on the Vikings' injury report Wednesday.
Nailor did not practice at all last week due to an illness, forcing him to sit out Sunday's win over Washington. He appears to be feeling better, giving him a good chance of returning to action in Week 10 versus Buffalo. However, that isn't newsworthy for fantasy managers, as Nailor has taken only one snap on offense so far this season.

Vikings' Jalen Nailor: Practices in full
Nailor (hamstring) was listed as a full participant on the Vikings' injury report Wednesday.
Nailor was inactive during Sunday's win over the Bears after being limited with a hamstring injury in practice Thursday and Friday. However, the rookie wideout appears to be healthy again after participating in full during the first practice of Week 6. Nailor recorded once reception on his lone offensive snap of the season in Week 4, and he should continue to primarily play on special teams, barring any injuries to Minnesota's wide receiver corps.
