  "account": "The Minnesota Vikings possess a formidable offense across all positions. As per Vikings Wire's analysis for the 2026 season, they present several fantasy football assets. Throughout the NFL campaign, the publication will evaluate all skill players from the team and determine if they deserve a starting spot. In this article, the focus is on the Vikings' formidable pair of wide receivers: Justin Jefferson and Jordan Addison. It is understood that Jefferson is a must-start, but Addison has been quiet so far in the season. The duo's chemistry, which was evident with Kyler Murray, was disrupted when Murray suffered an injury in Week 1. For Week 3, Addison is recommended to be a WR3 or a flex play in lineups. While a touchdown from Addison could be a pleasant surprise, it should not be counted on heavily for scoring. This article was originally published on Vikings Wire titled, \"Should you start any Vikings WR in fantasy football in Week 3?\"",
