Minnesota Vikings QB Christian Ponder (knee) was listed as a full participant in Monday's practice estimation. No actual practices were held, so this is just a formality as the Vikings gear up for Thursday Night Football against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
Christian Ponder full participant in practice estimations: Fantasy bounce back candidate?
Christian Ponder was a full participant in Monday’s practice estimations. We break down the fantasy implications.
Geoff Burke-US PRESSWIRE
It’s possible that Ponder’s sore knee contributed to his miserable performance in Week 7. He completed just 8-of-17 passes for 58 yards, one TD and two INTs.
Fantasy Impact: Did Ponder get exposed, or is his knee more serious than he’s letting on? Possibly both, but he clearly hasn’t been the same since showing up on the injury reports in Week 5.
Ponder may have burned fantasy owners last Sunday, but he’ll have a great chance to rebound against Tampa’s awful secondary. Continue plugging him in as a QB2.
