<h3>Q: What say you about Justin Jefferson and Jordan Addison? Will they play on Sunday?</h3>
<div>
<figure><img loading=)
Schefter tweeted Wednesday, “Vikings WR Justin Jefferson participated in today’s walk through, despite his quad injury. It looks as if he is on track to play Sunday vs. the Texans.”
And the day before Schefter’s tweet, Jefferson’s head coach, Kevin O’Connell, sounded rather optimistic about his chances of playing in Week 3, a battle of undefeateds at U.S. Bank Stadium between the Vikings and Houston Texans. “He’s doing well, though. He is doing really well, and he has responded really well to treatment early on, and we will see how his week kind of progresses,” O’Connell told KFAN’s Paul Allen on Tuesday.
O’Connell added about the LSU rivalry between Jets and Texans corner Derek Stingley Jr. “I wouldn’t discount the Stingley aspect of it, either. Those two, the LSU side of things. He’s becoming one of the premier cornerbacks in the league.”
Addison is more mysterious, but he should be good to go soon. All eyes head to Friday for the final injury report.
Q: With Nick Muse on IR, will the Vikings promote N’Keal Harry or Robert Tonyan?
Q: With all of these Hall of Fame nominees, who has the best chance at getting in first for the Vikings?

<p><span><strong>Answer:</strong></span> Jared Allen … by a mile.</p>
<p>These Vikings are nominated for 2025 Hall of Fame consideration:</p>
<ul>
<li>Gary Anderson</li>
<li>Jared Allen</li>
<li>Matt Birk</li>
<li>Randall Cunningham</li>
<li>Rich Gannon</li>
<li>Tony Richardson</li>
<li>Kevin Williams</li>
<li>Pat Williams</li>
</ul>
<p>There is no good reason why Allen shouldn’t be in the Hall of Fame already. It’s not a homer take to suggest it.</p>
<p>It’s Jared Allen without hesitation. </p>
