Vikings' Tyler Conklin remains relevant in loss
Minnesota Vikings tight end Tyler Conklin caught 3 passes for 57 yards and a touchdown on 4 targets in a 33-27, Week 15 loss to the Chicago Bears.
What It Means:
Conklin out-gained Irv Smith 57-37 and had the same amount of targets and catches despite playing fewer snaps. He's played over 55.0 percent of the offensive snaps each of the past two weeks with Kyle Rudolph (foot) sidelined. Conklin should see a similar role in Week 16 against the New Orleans Saints on Christmas this Friday afternoon.
Conklin scored 13.2 FanDuel points on Sunday and is averaging 9.9 over the last two weeks. The Saints are 18th in FanDuel points allowed per game to the tight end position this season.
