T.J. Hockenson News
Minnesota Vikings tight end T.J. Hockenson caught eight of 11 targets for 78 yards in the team's 28-24 loss in Week 3. The Vikings' fumbling woes continued as Hockenson lost the team's seventh fumble of the season in this one. Despite this, Hockenson was still able to provide fantasy managers with solid production at what looks to be an extremely shallow position once again. He will retain his status as an elite TE1 option moving forward, and will once again be a must-start option in Week 4 versus the Panthers.
Minnesota Vikings tight end T.J. Hockenson will look to build off his two-touchdown performance against the Eagles in Week 2, as the Vikings take on the Los Angeles Chargers on Sunday. Hockenson is positioned for another strong outing in this one, as the Vikings figure to keep up their pass-happy offense against the Chargers' secondary that has allowed the most passing yards this year. The former Detroit Lion has been the clear No. 2 option behind Justin Jefferson during his time in Minnesota, so fantasy managers can treat him as an elite TE1 on a weekly basis.
Minnesota Vikings tight end T.J. Hockenson came down with 7-of-8 targets for 66 yards and two touchdowns in Thursday's 34-28 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles. The 26-year-old made a couple of nice grabs during a second-quarter drive, topped off with a tackle-breaking five-yard score to get Minnesota on the board after their lethargic first period. Hockenson wasn't turned to much, until another three-catch 39-yard series saw him hit paydirt once more on Minnesota's final drive of the evening. The two-time Pro Bowler has now collected 15-of-17 targets across his first two contests, picking up right where he left after pacing for a 100-catch season upon landing with the Vikings last year. Hockenson is a high-end TE1 in Minny's pass-centric offense for Week 3's date with the Los Angeles Chargers.
