Tyler Conklin (hamstring) could return to practice this week

Vikings tight end Tyler Conklin has the wrapping off his injured hamstring so all indications are he could doing some practicing this week.

Fantasy Impact: Minnesota will gladly welcome Conklin back with Irv Smith (meniscus surgery) expected to miss some time. He could be the starting tight end on the Vikings offense to begin the season, though he is only really worth rostering in deeper fantasy football leagues and/or ones with tight end premium scoring for the time being.
