To be clear on this Minnesota Vikings topic, this would be a symbolic, offense-focused gesture – not a literal move of Irv Smith Jr. to the WR3 spot on the depth chart. That might actually be feasible, perhaps in a video game, but this is not an endorsement to contractually shift Smith Jr. to wide receiver.
Consider Smith Jr.-to-WR a representative idea. In essence, this is an endorsement to allot the third-most targets on the team in 2021 to Smith Jr. Second-year wideout Justin Jefferson [barring injury] will command the most targets, then Adam Thielen, followed by Smith Jr.
