Vikings may be without multiple starting corners versus Packers

The Minnesota Vikings could be without three of their top four cornerbacks in Week 8 against the Green Bay Packers on Sunday.

What It Means:

Mike Hughes (neck) and Holton Hill (foot) have both been absent from practice while Kris Boyd (hamstring, back) has been limited. The Vikings also placed Cameron Dantzler on the COVID-19 reserve list this week. It could wind up being a field day for Aaron Rodgers and Davante Adams in Week 8. Adams caught 14 passes on 17 targets for 156 yards and 2 touchdowns against the Vikings in the first game of the season.

Adams is the top overall wide receiver in numberFire's Week 8 fantasy rankings. Our models project him to draw 11.4 targets and score 16.7 FanDuel points with a salary of $9,100. The Vikings have the No. 20 pass defense in our advanced team rankings.
