ANALYSIS: Minnesota Vikings wide receiver K.J. Osborn has made his presence known down the stretch this season. Osborn has now scored TDs in three of Minnesota's last four games.
Buried on the depth chart beneath a talented pass-catching group in Minny, Osborn can often get lost in this high-octane passing offense. However, he has carved out some nice production since Week 14, highlighted by a 10/157/1 explosion against the Indianapolis Colts in Week 15.
Osborn was the beneficiary of an uptick in playing time in last week's blowout loss to the Green Bay Packers. He hauled in seven of seven targets for 59 yards and a score during garbage time.
He might once again see an uptick in usage in Week 18, as the Vikings will most likely relax the playing time of stars such as Justin Jefferson and Adam Thielen in order to ensure a playoff matchup with the New York Giants.
It wouldn't be surprising to see Osborn serving as the alpha for the Minnesota receiving corps against a putrid Chicago Bears defense in the regular-season finale. Fantasy managers that are still battling it out in Week 18 should give him serious FLEX consideration.
