Irv Smith undergoes surgery on meniscus, likely out for the year

Irv Smith underwent surgery to repair his meniscus and will likely be out 4-to-5 months. Expect Smith to miss the regular season.

Fantasy Impact: Smith being out vacates the tight end spot in Minnesota. The Vikings completed a trade for Chris Herndon, who will replace Smith as the starter. Smith being out for the season could give a slight bump in targets to both Justin Jefferson and Adam Thielen.
