Pff’s Fantasy Football Summary focuses on the use of players and statistics, so that all the vital information you need to achieve fantasies successes in 2025 split.
Minnesota Vikings @ Cleveland Browns
The browns dig the wide depth card of the recipient: Two of the top five broad recipients of the Browns landed on an injured reserve last week.
The browns placed the starting wide recipient Cedric Tillman (Hamstring) and Back -Up wide receiver and return Deandre Carter (knee) on an wounded reserve. Cleveland only had five broad recipients on their selection before the injuries, so it signed both Gage Larvenain and Malachi Corley for the schedule of 53 men from the practical team.
The browns were already a team that used a considerable amount of 12 employees, but this led them to rely even more heavily on their two-striking sets. While Jamari Thrash started the game with Jerry Jeudy, Isaiah bonded Jeudy more often in two-receiver sets, especially when passing plays. The three recipients were together on the field for their rare three-reception sets. Corley was the fourth wide receiver, including some snaps in sets with two recipients and an 11-year Carry, who was the first touch for a Brown’s wide receiver in the game. Larvadain was largely used as the tip of the browns.
Bond is a good distance option at a wide recipient. His playing time should only increase from here, and there is a chance that he will stay Tillman for the depth card when he returns. Every time you can add a Rookie -wide receiver that belongs to one of the top two on the depth card, it makes sense to add them in the first half of the season, in case they take the necessary steps forward to be a fantasy starter in the second half of the season. Given the condition of the passing attack of the browns, it might not be logical to have bond at the moment in fantasy -starting line -ups.
David Njoku Keep the lead in the tight final rotation of De Bruin: Njoku was usually the tight end of browns on the field in one -tight sets.
Njoku has confronted with an important competition for playing time and goals by Harold Fannin Jr., the Rookie of the browns of the browns. While Njoku played more offensive Snaps for the first four weeks, Fannin had more fantasy production. Last week Fannin played more than 50% of Cleveland’s attacking snaps in set-end sets on the third downs, so Njoku played less than 50% of the snaps. At Early Downs, Fannin reached a career-high 37.5% of the attacking snaps.
While the momentum seemed to be in favor of Fannin, Njoku was consistently on the field in sets with one tight end in this game. It is possible that the browns wanted more of an experienced presence on the field to help their Rookie Quarterback, Dillon Gabriel, in his first start. Njoku led the team in receiving production with six receptions for 67 yards and a touchdown, while Fannin also scored a touchdown.
Both players remain borderline fantasy starting tight ends, depending on the matchup. The browns have consistently run 12 employees that you can reasonably have in your line -up, unlike earlier teams who have had two remarkably tight ends, but do not have so many 12 employees. However, it will be less likely that Fannin could someday be a top-five option this season, given the playing time and production of Njoku.
Jordan Mason Reaches fantasy points with double digits despite setbacks: Mason was successful in the second half despite messing around in the first half and injuries on the attacking line.
Mason is the clear lead of the Vikings that has been back since Aaron Jones Sr. landed on an wounded reserve. Zavier Scott has emerged when passing back. Mason was not ranked as high as usual because of injuries on the attacking line while confronted with the line of defense of the browns. Startlink guard Donovan Jackson (Pols), Center Ryan Kelly (concussion), right Tackle Brian O’Neill (Knie) and Back -Upcentrum Michael Jurgens (Hamstring) were all excluded earlier in the week, while two other back -up offensive rules are in an injured reserve. The Vikings faced the browns, which had an 89.2 Run-Defense figure on the way to the week, which was the best among all teams.
Mason lost a mess during the first ride, which was his second mess in the past two weeks. This led the Vikings to turn almost the entire second ride to Scott. Mason returned to play considerably on the third ride, but it was still not as much as usual. Fullback CJ Ham was activated on Saturday to the schedule of 53 men after having spent the first four weeks of the season on injured reserve. Ham had a history of playing as the only one who ran in third place in the past seasons, and that was the case for this game. Ham consistently stood on the field for third and medium or long plays and took the time away from both running backs.
Mason found some success in the third quarter, including a run of 14 meters and a touchdown of three meters. He took a big hit late in the third quarter, leaving him on the floor longer than usual. He missed the next disk, in which Scott lost a mess. Mason ended the day on average 4.0 meters per Carry, which was noticeably better than Derrick Henry (2.1), Chase Brown (2.0), Josh Jacobs (1.9) and David Montgomery (1.3). The Vikings have a BYE week next week, which ideally will give the attacking line of the Vikings some time to get healthy. Mason must be considered a buy-low option, considering how well he played in the Run game outside the two junk.
Jordan Addison Benched for a quarter: Addison did not play his first offensive Snap until the second quarter.
Addison was suspended for the first three weeks of the season, but played 73 of a possible 76 snaps in his return in week 4, suggesting that he would be a clear start -wide receiver for the rest of the season, comparable to his role from last season. However, he did not play a single snap on the first two discs. Usually, when someone who usually plays 100% of the attacking snaps of his team and does not play on the injury report, only plays in the second half, it is for a disciplinary issue. Both Vikings defeated writers and national reporters were not sure what the issue was while the game happened.
Minnesota used Jalen Nailor as the number 2 receiver and Adam Thielen as number 3 in the first quarter, very similar to how they used their broad recipients in the first three weeks of the season. Once Addison started playing, he was back to his usual role as the number 2 receiver, while Nailor fell to third place and Thielen fell on the fourth card on the depth card. Addison did not see many goals until the last minute of the game, where he caught three straight steps, including the game-winning touchdown.
The most likely scenario is that this game will not affect Addison’s Fantasy Football Future. In the future, he can be in fantasy bars, depending on the health of the Quarterbacks of the Vikings, attacking line and the opponent. There is not much reason to keep Nailor on fantasy grilles, and Thielen can be released from Redraft competitions and even dynastia competitions. However, there is a chance that if Addison has another off-the-field problem, the Vikings could more likely continue to addnison or impose a more significant suspension.
Various notes
- Vikingen Start Quarterback JJ McCarthy missed his third consecutive game due to an ankle injury.
- While Minnesota added Desmond Knight when McCarthy was injured, he was inactive for the past two weeks and was released from the team on Saturday.
- Vikingen third-string tight end Ben YuroSek missed his second consecutive game due to a knee injury. Veteran Nick Vannett has taken over the third tight end.
- Minnesota called Cam Akers out of the practice team as the third running back for a third consecutive game with Aaron Jones Sr. on injured reserve. His only attacking Snap was a trick game in which he threw a touchdown pass.

Table notes
- Snaps include plays that are mentioned back because of penalties, including keeping offensive or defensive pass -interference. The other three statistics have removed these plays.
- Goals can differ from official NFL sources. The most likely discrepancy would come from a clear shot pass, whereby the NFL can give the target to the nearest recipient, while this data does not.
- Carries are only on designed plays. Quarterback Scrambles do not count for the total number of Carry’s in the game.
