Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Jalen Nailor is in a position to see an elevated workload early in the 2025 season with fellow wideout Jordan Addison set to serve a three-game suspension.

Seattle Seahawks running back Kenneth Walker III (foot) was back in pads at Tuesday's training camp practice, according to Bob Condotta of The Seattle Times.

ESPN NFL Insider Adam Schefter reports that Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Jordan Addison will be suspended for the first three games of the 2025 season. The thought was that the 23-year-old would eventually be hit with a short suspension stemming from a DUI incident in 2024, and the punishment was finally dealt after Addison pleaded guilty to a lesser charge a few weeks back. Schefter notes that he'll still be permitted to participate in training camp and preseason games without restriction, ... [More...]

The 32-year-old retired from the NFL before last season but then quickly ... [More...]
