Vikings ‘seriously exploring’ trade for veteran receiver — three potential candidates
NY Post
Facing high expectations with a quarterback about to play his first NFL snaps, the Vikings are looking to address their uncertainty at wide receiver.
Minnesota is “seriously exploring” a trade for a veteran receiver, NFL Network reported Wednesday, though nothing is imminent.
While the Vikings are getting Justin Jefferson back on the practice field this week after he dealt with a hamstring issue, there are major question marks behind him.
Jordan Addison, the Vikings’ first-round pick in 2023, was suspended three games by the NFL earlier this month for violating the league’s substance abuse policy after pleading no contest in a DUI case.
Rondale Moore, who signed with the Vikings after missing all of last season with the Falcons due to a knee injury, suffered another season-ending knee injury during a preseason game on Aug. 9.
Fourth-year receiver Jalen Nailor, who figured to benefit from the absences of Addison and Moore, recently suffered a hand injury and is considered week-to-week.

Cade Cunningham, almost inarguably the best player in the East this season, is likely out for the remainder of the regular season. That’s the word out of Detroit following the depressing news that Cunningham punctured a lung when he took a knee to his side Tuesday from Washington’s Tre Johnson while chasing a loose ball.

Wednesday was another positive day at Yankees camp. For the first time since March 6, 2025 — an outing in which he knew “something wasn’t right,” which began a weeks-long saga that ended on the operating table for Tommy John surgery — Gerrit Cole was back on a mound and facing hitters in game action.
