T.J. Hockenson Catches Seven Passes In Week 9 Win

T.J. Hockenson Catches Seven Passes In Week 9 Win

one year ago

Minnesota Vikings tight end T.J. Hockenson caught seven of 12 targets for 69 yards in the team's 31-28 win over the Falcons. Hockenson was leaned on heavily by quarterback Joshua Dobbs in this one, as he out-targeted the next closest pass-catcher 12 to seven. The former Detroit Lion will continue to have elite TE1 value based on what we saw in Week 9, as he figures to be the No. 1 option as long as Justin Jefferson (hamstring) remains sidelined. Still, once Jefferson returns to action, it looks like rookie wide receiver Jordan Addison will be the one who will feel most of the effect. Fantasy managers can start Hockenson with confidence on a weekly basis moving forward.
