        T.J. Hockenson Ready For Week 15

        11:49pm UTC 12/12/25

        Vikings TE T.J. Hockenson (shin) is not listed on the final injury report for Sunday night's game vs. the Cowboys. He was sidelined on Wednesday but took part in the final two practices of the week. Hockenson remains a low-upside TE2 in Week 15 fantasy lineups.

        12:36pm UTC 9/7/25

        Bears LB T.J. Edwards is doubtful for Monday night's game against the Vikings because of a hamstring injury that has cost him "nearly a week and a half" of practice so far, according to Bears Wire's Alyssa Barbieri.

        T.J. Hockenson Injury Draws Odd Explanation from Coach

        1:06am UTC 8/5/25

        Vikings TE T.J. Hockenson missed Monday's practice with an injury he suffered in Saturday's practice. According to beat writer Judd Zulgad, HC Kevin O'Connell called it a "hip, leg, back -- whatever you want to classify it at."

        3:17pm UTC 12/6/24

        Vikings TE Josh Oliver (wrist, ankle) is off the final Week 14 injury report and will be back for Sunday’s game vs. the Falcons. That could mean a slight dip in pass routes for T.J. Hockenson, but he remains a fine TE1 play.

        Vikings TE T.J. Hockenson caught seven of nine targets for 114 yards including setting up the game winning FG with a 29-yard reception. Hockenson had looked sluggish returning from his ACL injury but finally looked fully healthy.

        9:34pm UTC 11/1/24

        Vikings TE T.J. Hockenson (knee) put in a full week of practice and is not listed on the final injury report. He’ll make his 2024 debut vs. the Colts’ 28th-ranked TE defense on Sunday night. Minnesota’s coaching staff hinted earlier this week that Hockenson will play something close to his usual role. He checks in 13th in our Week 9 TE Rankings.

        T.J. Hockenson Questionable For Week 8

        3:42pm UTC 10/23/24

        Vikings TE T.J. Hockenson (knee) is listed as questionable for Thursday night's game vs. the Rams. He was limited in practice all week. Fox Sports' Jay Glazer suggested this past Sunday morning that Hockenson was tracking toward returning for this one, but his status remains uncertain for now. Even if Hockenson does play, we'd expect him to be on some type of snap count in his first action since last December's multi-ligament knee injury. The matchup is good, though, against the Rams' 23rd-ranked TE defense. So desperate fantasy owners could certainly do worse than giving Hockenson a shot if he plays.

        T.J. Hockenson has no timetable for return

        2:09pm UTC 5/20/24

        Vikings TE T.J. Hockenson admitted recently that he has no timetable for return from last year's multi-ligament knee injury. Hockenson tore his right MCL and ACL on December 24. The MCL injury delayed the ACL surgery until January 29, pushing back Hockenson's timeline. He'll be just a little over seven months removed from surgery come Week 1.

        T.J. Hockenson gets knee surgery

        3:47pm UTC 1/30/24

        Vikings TE T.J. Hockenson underwent surgery on January 29 to repair his torn ACL, the team announced. Doctors waited for 36 days after the injury to do surgery in order to let Hockenson's MCL heal. It's standard practice but obviously pushes back Hockenson's timeline for return. Consider him iffy to be ready for the start of the 2024 season, which kicks off in about 7.5 months.

        T.J. Hockenson diagnosed with torn ACL, MCL

        3:30pm UTC 12/26/23

        On Tuesday, ESPN's Adam Schefter confirmed that Vikings TE T.J. Hockenson tore his right ACL and MCL in Sunday's loss vs. the Lions. That ends Hockenson's phenomenal season. The veteran pass-catcher posted a position-leading 127 targets and 219 PPR points (a career-best) through Week 16. We'll see about his chances of making it back for the start of 2024. But his long-term dynasty value should still largely remain intact. Be sure to keep up with us throughout the offseason as more information becomes available. Hockenson's injury likely means more playing time for TEs Josh Oliver and Johnny Mundt. They saw near-identical playing time against the Lions, with Mundt getting the edge in snaps (23-21) and targets (3-2). The presence of both makes neither especially attractive for fantasy purposes. WR K.J. Osborn probably gains the most fantasy relevance.

        Vikings TE T.J. Hockenson injured his right knee in the third quarter of Sunday's game vs. the Lions and was ruled out just a short time later. We'll look for further updates on the severity of the injury and Hockenson's timetable for return.

        Don't count on Justin Jefferson for Week 11

        5:24pm UTC 11/15/23

        Vikings WR Justin Jefferson appears unlikely to play Sunday against the Broncos. ESPN's Kevin Seifert reports that Jefferson is "continuing to ramp up" in his return from a hamstring injury "but would need to make a lot of quick progress to play Sunday night." That doesn't mean he's out for the week just yet. But you'll need to plan as though you won't have Jefferson in your fantasy lineup. We'll be watching throughout the rest of the week for more updates on the star WR. For now, we've knocked him out of our Week 11 WR rankings and adjusted the projections for teammates such as QB Joshua Dobbs (down) and TE T.J. Hockenson (up).

        Kirk Cousins feared to have torn Achilles

        4:51pm UTC 10/29/23

        Vikings QB Kirk Cousins is feared to have torn his Achilles in Sunday's win over the Packers, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. It's typically easy for doctors to diagnose a torn Achilles without any imaging. We should get confirmation tomorrow, but Cousins' 2023 season is very likely over. His absence would leave Minnesota with QBs Jaren Hall and Sean Mannion. QB Nick Mullens is currently on IR with a back injury but is eligible to return. Regardless, Cousins' injury is horrible news for Minnesota's skill-position players.
