Minnesota Vikings head coach Leslie Frazier was still not ready to say definitely, whether WR Jerome Simpson would be available in Week 11. Simpson was arrested over the weekend for driving under the influence. 'We'll have further clarification as we learn more from the league as well as what we're going to do internally,' Frazier said Tuesday, Nov. 12. 'But from my standpoint there isn't a whole lot more I can add regarding his situation as we are continuing to gather more information.'
Huddle Up: Hopefully you can set your fantasy lineups without concern for Simpson's availability this weekend. Or put another way: if your fantasy season hinges on the availability of a secondary member of the Vikings' putrid passing game, you're more in need of treatment than Simpson.

Minnesota Vikings WR Jerome Simpson has been arrested and charged with driving while intoxicated.
Huddle Up: Simpson already has a felony drug plea on his record. He hasn't topped 45 receiving yards in his last five games. Regardless of what happens to him legally, Simpson isn't on the fantasy radar right now.

Minnesota Vikings WR Jerome Simpson had seven catches for 140 yards in Week 1.
Huddle Up: This is the Simpson the Vikings thought they were getting last year. Fantasy owners expected bigger things Greg Jennings and Kyle Rudolph, but with Christian Ponder there isn't enough to feed multiple mouths in the Minnesota passing game. Tough to bank on Simpson being a consistent fantasy provider in that offense.
