K.J. Osborn, Brandon Powell Limited Wednesday

one year ago

Minnesota Vikings wide receivers K.J. Osborn (chest) and Brandon Powell (shoulder) were both listed as limited in the team's walkthrough practice on Wednesday. Both Osborn and Powell should be able to play in Week 9 against the Atlanta Falcons, but their status is worth watching the rest of the week. Osborn and Powell have both seen their roles increase with Justin Jefferson (hamstring) on Injured Reserve. Osborn has 17 receptions for 194 yards on 21 targets in the last three games, while Powell has caught eight of his 12 targets for 94 yards and no touchdowns. Rookie Jordan Addison has done most of the heavy lifting in the aerial attack for Minnesota without Jefferson, alongside tight end T.J. Hockenson. Osborn will become an even more shaky WR4/flex option in fantasy lineups now that Kirk Cousins is done for the year with a torn Achilles, though.
