Riddick is still dealing with an ankle injury he suffered back in Week 5. He missed two games before returning in Week 8. His practice routine suggests there may have been a setback. He got two full sessions in last week, but was limited all three days this week.
With normal starter Ameer Abdullah still on injured reserve, Riddick will get the bulk of the running back touches as long as he is active.
In five games, Riddick has 171 rushing yards and one touchdown to go with 26 receptions for 190 yards and three scores.
Fantasy Impact: Yahoo! ranks Riddick as the eighth-best PPR running back in Week 9. He faces a Vikings defense allowing the ninth-most receiving yards to running backs this season.
As long as Riddick plays, keep him in your starting lineup.
