The Vikings offense is loaded in every way, at every position. Of course, with a high-powered offense like the Vikings', they come with some notable fantasy football assets.
During the 2026 season here on Vikings Wire, we will review all fantasy-relevant skill players for the team and share whether they are worth a start.
Each position has players that can help or hurt your fantasy team, so this will be a form of start or sit. In this piece, we will be looking at Aaron Jones Sr.
Jones was banged up in Week 7 against the Colts and missed the end of the game. The team itself is not concerned about his health, but it could be a lingering factor in the work he would receiver against the Lions. Early in the week we have to play things carefully, and with
waivers opening on Tuesday for fantasy, you should be looking for help if you are counting on him.
Our verdict is to plan for the worst and hope for the best. Look over waivers to have someone ready to replace Jones in your lineup, or hold strong and hope for the best.
