From the article

Both Jordan Addison and Justin Jefferson operated from the boundary at an (expected) 80 percent rate in the Vikings' Week 1 win against Green Bay. Jefferson did stuff with his targets while Addison was mostly there to get some exercise and run around for a few hours, which is something we should all do once in a while. Addison was targeted on a fairly depressing 8 percent of his routes against the Packers. He was fourth in air yards among Minnesota pass catchers. Whoever avoids Bears CB Jaylon Johnson has a shot at fantasy production. That should be Addison in Week 2. I think you can still start him in 12-team leagues. Maybe.

Addison faces weak Bears boundary defense but had only 8% target rate in Week 1

Addison is in a favorable Week 2 matchup against Chicago's boundary defense, which was exploited in Week 1. However, his Week 1 production was disappointing: he was targeted on only 8 percent of his routes (fourth in air yards among Minnesota pass catchers) despite operating from the boundary at an 80 percent rate. Whoever avoids Bears CB Jaylon Johnson has a shot at fantasy production; that should be Addison in Week 2, though he can still be started in 12-team leagues with caution.
