Dede Westbrook Expects To Be Ready
3 years agoMinnesota Vikings wide receiver Dede Westbrook (knee), who is recovering from a torn ACL last October, was a full practice participant on Wednesday. Westbrook said on Aug. 6 that he "most definitely" would be ready for the season-opener against the Cincinnati Bengals, and it's looking like he was right. It's good news for Westbrook and the Vikings, but it's unclear what role/how big of one Westbrook will have on offense. K.J. Osborn is the favorite for No. 3 duties behind Justin Jefferson and Adam Thielen after he impressed during the preseason. Westbrook must stay healthy and surpass Osborn on the receiver depth chart before fantasy managers will take notice.
