Green Bay Packers DFS Spin
AJ Dillon (thumb) was removed from the Week 17 injury report and will play against the Vikings. Dillon played through the thumb issue last week and practiced on Wednesday, so he was never at risk of missing Week 17. Coming off a seven-carry game versus the Panthers, Dillon will rank as a low-end RB3 for Week 17.
Minnesota Vikings DFS Spin
NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reports Jordan Addison (ankle) is playing in Week 17 against the Packers. Addison missed Wednesday’s practice but was back on the field for limited sessions on Thursday and Friday. He was listed as questionable heading into the weekend. With T.J. Hockenson done for the year and the Vikings circling back to rookie Jaren Hall under center, Minnesota needs all the help they can get at receiver. Getting Addison back is a big win for their fledgling playoff hopes. For his part, Addison will rank as a risky WR3 with Hall making his first start since Week 9.
