Vikings consider expanded role for Jordan Addison in running game

The Minnesota Vikings are examining ways to utilize wide receiver Jordan Addison more in the running game ahead of training camp. Analyst Judd Zulgad suggested that Addison's previous success, including a 65-yard touchdown run last season, warrants increased touches. While the team is focused on a quarterback competition between Kyler Murray and J.J. McCarthy, Addison is building chemistry with Murray, noting that their communication has been productive. The Vikings aim to enhance their run game, which has struggled, by incorporating Addison's skills as part of a creative offensive strategy this season.
