Minnesota Vikings tight end Irv Smith (back) will not play in Week 13's game against the Jacksonville Jaguars.
Smith will miss his second straight contest after suffering a back injury in Week 11. Expect Kyle Rudolph to play an expanded pass catching role against a Jaguars' defense ranked 27th in fantasy points allowed to tight ends (12.2 per game).
Rudolph's current Week 13 projection includes 2.7 receptions for 28.3 yards on 3.9 targets.
