Felton earns first offense-only game with 47 snaps as Vikings WR2 vs. Saints.

Felton was named wide receiver two against the Saints and saw 47 snaps out wide and in the slot, marking his first career game with offense-only playing time. He caught two passes on three targets for 27 yards from Kyler Murray. For a third straight week, he was featured in the offense and not restricted to special teams reps. Through five games, Felton has played 125 offensive snaps, already exceeding the 46 snaps he received his entire rookie year. The increased opportunity came with veteran receivers Justin Jefferson and Jordan Addison dealing with injuries, though he will return to a rotational role once the room is fully healthy.
