Zavier Scott - Limited to special teams Scott played 13 snaps, all on special teams, in Sunday's win at Detroit.
Impact When Aaron Jones and Jordan Mason healthy, Scott will have a limited role on offense. He didn't play on offense after Jones hurt his shoulder in the game, but could figure back into the mix if Jones is sidelined next week against Baltimore.

Jalen Nailor - Has key reception in win Nailor had one reception for 16 yards on four targets in Sunday's win at Detroit.
Impact Nailor had just one catch, but it was for a first down at the end of the game the sealed the victory. Nailor's opportunities didn't change with the return of J.J. McCarthy at quarterback. He played on 33 of the offense's 62 snaps, which was slightly less than his usual participation. He continues to have a steady role in the offense but won't get many looks in the passing game with Justin Jefferson, Addison and tight end T.J. Hockenson drawing the bulk of the targets.
