Jalen Nailor fantasy football start 'em, sit 'em picks for Week 2 (2024). Should you start or sit Jalen Nailor in your fantasy football lineups?
BALLER MOVE: Sit
POSITIONAL VALUE: WR4
ANALYSIS: One target in Week 1. That's all you need to know about Minnesota Vikings WR Jalen Nailor for now. Even though it was a touchdown, it's far too early to put Nailor in starting lineups. Unless you're in a 20-team league with 5 WR spots. Maybe not that bad, but Nailor needs more targets to be startable.

He's at least a capable NFL receiver, so that helps. But for now, keep him on the bench. That being said, he's an interesting player to keep an eye on. He showcased an impressive ability to separate in Week 1, and he could become a bigger part of the Vikings' offense.
This is especially true now that Vikings No. 2 WR Jordan Addison is out with an ankle injury that he picked up on a hip-drop tackle (maybe the NFL doesn't plan on actually flagging the play even though it's illegal?), and it's unknown how much time he will miss.

If Addison returns sooner rather than later, we may not see much Nailor fantasy relevance this season, if any. Don't start Nailor this week.
