00:00Jalen Naylor of the Minnesota Vikings has been seeing some extended time, of course,

00:08without one of their wide receivers playing.

00:11So the question is, is Naylor just someone that had good fortune because of an injury

00:18or will he play a lot more?

00:20The same could be said for Jordan Whittington.

00:23And I did watch Whittington play a little bit last week, George, and I think he's going

00:28to be in that slot spot for the, you know, for the Rams.

00:32So what I would say here is I'm not, I don't think I would start or even pick up either,

00:37but, but if you needed to pick one and you needed eight points, I think Jordan Whittington

00:44on the Rams is going to get you those four catches and 40 yards this week.

00:49No Jordan Addison, right?

00:50He's out.

00:51I'd rather have Naylor.

00:52I think it's almost an easier choice.

00:54I think they both probably get your eight points, by the way.

00:56So I guess, you know, nothing can go wrong here, but Addison's out here and JJ is going

01:00to play.

01:01I think it's going to be a high scoring game in Minnesota against Houston.

01:04So I think the opportunities will be there.

01:05Aaron Jones is banged up as well.

01:07So it may be all rely on Donald on the passing game here.

01:09So I like Naylor a bunch for this week.

01:11I'll tell you the truth, both these guys are more bi-week fillers for me, you know, and

01:16on the normal circumstances, but because of all the injuries, this is why we're talking

01:19about them.

01:20All right.

01:21Then I think I said, I think Naylor has the higher upside.

01:22I think that's also a part of this.

01:24Let's face it.

01:26I don't know if they're able to score any points this week.

01:27You know, I mean, if everything goes right, maybe, maybe they get two touchdowns.

01:32I think that's asking a lot to get those two touchdowns with what they have left here.

01:36So I think we'll get your eight points if that's what you're looking for, but I would

01:39much rather have the higher upside of Naylor, who has a healthy Justin Jefferson.

01:44Even if Jones is out, they have Todd Chandler, who's played well here.

01:48I think Minnesota is going to score a bunch of points here, higher upside for Naylor for me.

01:55Yeah.

01:56Yeah.

01:57Yeah.

01:58Yeah.

01:59Yeah.
