Productive in loss to Detroit Nailor secured three of four targets for 53 yards during Sunday's 31-9 loss at Detroit.

Impact Nailor stepped up his production during Minnesota's final two regular-season games, a span in which he combined for an 8-134-1 receiving line on nine targets. The 2022 sixth-round pick also had a hot start to the season, but from Week 8 to Week 16 he totaled just 67 yards on offense, albeit with two scores. In total across 17 regular-season games, Nailor tallied 28 catches for 414 yards and 6 touchdowns on 42 targets. Nailor will work to remain productive behind Justin Jefferson and Jordan Addison during Monday's road wild-card matchup against the Rams.

Scores touchdown against Packers Nailor caught all five of his targets for 81 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 27-25 win over the Packers.

Impact Nailor's five catches and 81 yards were both season-high marks in each category. The 25-year-old's 31-yard touchdown was his sixth trip to the end zone this season, as the wideout continues to develop his connection with quarterback Sam Darnold. Despite having his best statistical game of the season, Nailor remains difficult to trust for fantasy purposes heading into a Week 18 matchup against the Lions.

Catches another touchdown Sunday Nailor caught one of his two targets for five yards and a touchdown during Sunday's 30-27 overtime win at Chicago.

Impact Nailor only played 25 offensive snaps in Week 12, but he came up with his fifth touchdown reception of the season to put the Vikings up 14-7 in the second quarter. He still lagged in targets (2) behind Jordan Addison (9) and Justin Jefferson (5), and he will continue to be dependent upon touchdowns for fantasy production as long as those two remain available.

Hits pay dirt in win Nailor caught his lone target for seven yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 21-13 win over the Colts.

Impact Nailor's touchdown Sunday was his fourth trip to the end zone through eight games this season. The 25-year-old continues to see steady involvement in Minnesota's offense as the No. 3 wideout, earning multiple targets in all but two games. With that said, Nailor is difficult to trust for fantasy purposes based on his inconsistent and modest production while also being touchdown-dependent. The Vikings will visit the Jaguars in Week 10.

Productive in loss to Detroit Nailor had four receptions for 76 yards on five targets in Sunday's loss to Detroit.

Impact After failing to register a target in a Week 5 win over the Jets, Nailor was active and second in the team in targets. He played on 44 of the offense's 60 snaps as he'll be involved when the team uses three-receiver sets. However, his production will likely be erratic as a distant third option behind Justin Jefferson and Jordan Addison. His No. 3 receiver role could also be reduced if T.J. Hockenson is able to return from a knee injury Thursday against the Rams.

Impact Nailor played on 41 of the offense's 73 snaps and went out on 25 routes, according to Pro Football Focus. Nailor is getting time in the offense as the third receiver, but may not get many targets as long as Justin Jefferson and Jordan Addison are healthy. Nailor's role could be reduced further if T.J. Hockenson is able to return from a knee injury after Minnesota's bye in Week 6.

Big gain on one catch Nailor secured one of two targets for 31 yards and netted no gain on one punt return in the Vikings' 31-29 win over the Packers on Sunday.

Impact Nailor shifted to the No. 3 receiver role with Jordan Addison returning from a two-game absence due to an ankle issue, but he still made an impact on his one catch. The 2022 sixth-round pick saw his season-opening touchdown streak snapped at three games, but given his speed, Nailor should continue seeing his fair share of complementary targets from Sam Darnold overseas in a London battle against the Jets in Week 5.

Scores again in Sunday's win Nailor caught three of four targets for 31 yards in Sunday's 34-7 win over the Texans.

Impact While he didn't see big volume once again, even with Jordan Addison (ankle) sidelined, Nailor still extended his season-opening TD streak to three games with a four-yard reception from Sam Darnold in the third quarter. Nailor has yet to see more than four targets in a game, so his production so far has been almost entirely dependent on his trips to the end zone, but he'll look to hit pay dirt again in Week 4 against the Packers.
