Over the past two seasons, Nailor's game has been on the rise. During the 2025 season, Nailor recorded single-season career highs in games started (eight), receptions (29) and receiving yards (444). In a crowded Vikings receivers room, his season included a few standout moments, most notably a career-best 124‑yard, one touchdown performance against the Ravens in Week 10.
In 2024, Nailor and WR Justin Jefferson became the first Vikings duo in franchise history to both score a receiving touchdown in each of the team's first three games of a season. They were the first pair to achieve the feat league wide since 2018 (Mike Evans and Chris Godwin).
