Johnny Mundt Catches Three Passes In Week 1

Minnesota Vikings tight end Johnny Mundt caught three passes for 17 yards in the team's Week 1 win over the Green Bay Packers. Irv Smith Jr. was held to zero receptions on just two targets. Smith Jr. finished behind five players in terms of target volume, so moving forward he doesn't seem like a reliable option for fantasy managers. Still, Smith Jr. hasn't played a game since the 2020 season so a slow start doesn't come as a surprise. He should be treated as the Vikings TE1 moving forward despite Mundt outperforming him in the season opener.
