Jordan Addison Gets Sweet Revenge On Charvarius Ward After Ripping Ball

The Minnesota Vikings showed up to play Monday night against the San Francisco 49ers, thanks in large part to the booming connection between Kirk Cousins and Vikings rookie wideout Jordan Addison.

Addison flashed a bit of that dawg in the first half when he got sweet revenge on 49ers cornerback Charvarius Ward.

Early in the first quarter, Ward strong-armed a Cousins pass attempt out of Addison's hands for an interception.

The two had an early battle in the game, trading Moss-like catches. Primetime Cousins' turnover was a rough start for the Vikings offense. But eventually, Minnesota rebounded.

On Addison's second touchdown of the evening, the rook ripped a late pass out of Ward's grasp and took off for a 60-yard score.

WATCH:

Addison scored on a 20-yard receiving TD in the first quarter — setting the momentum early for the interim No. 1 receiver. Addison tallied seven catches for 123 yards and two touchdowns.

Any fantasy manager trusting in Addison on Monday night is having a sensational time. Nearly as good of a time as Minnesota, who beat the Niners, 22-17.
