The Minnesota Vikings are preparing for their season opener against the New York Giants, and there is good news for fans before this huge clash. Jordan Addison, the wide receiver of the Vikings who had been suffering from an ankle issue, is now off the injury report and ready for Sunday’s highly anticipated game. Yes, you heard it correctly: the Vikings may enter the contest with their full potential, and we can expect a fantastic performance from them.
Jordan Addison hurt his ankle during a joint practice session with the Cleveland Browns. It was a terrible blow that occurred in the middle of August. During that time, Addison’s ankle did not look well, and several speculated that he might miss some games. The wide receiver appears to have proven everyone wrong once more, demonstrating his toughness even off the field with his rapid recovery.
Coach O’Connell also just issued a nice remark on Jordan, stating that he is looking forward to the WR joining the team soon. He stated, “We’d like to kind of progress him, hopefully to full participation by the end of the week. I think Jordan’s in a good spot. I feel pretty good about him making the game.” Jordan is widely expected to complete the Minnesota Vikings roster since he was the missing piece of the team’s most effective strategy.

The Vikings are going to be a much more pass-happy offense this year, even more so when questions mount with Dalvin Cook’s departure at running back. If Addison can reach his potential and stay healthy, he could be a key cog for what figures to be an obnoxiously loud offense within the NFC North.
