Vikings' Irv Smith Jr. (groin) out for Week 10's game against Bears

Minnesota Vikings tight end Irv Smith Jr. (groin) will not play in Week 10's divisional contest against the Chicago Bears.

What It Means:

Smith Jr. will miss Monday's game against the Bears after suffering a groin injury. In an underrated matchup against a Chicago defense ranked 24th in fantasy points allowed to tight ends, expect Kyle Rudolph to play an increased role in Minnesota's passing game.

Rudolph's current Week 10 projection includes 2.0 receptions for 20.7 yards on 2.9 targets.
