The Minnesota Vikings will host the Washington Commanders in Week 14. Here’s the latest fantasy football news and advice to help you with your lineups this week and moving forward, specifically regarding TE T.J. Hockenson.
Is T.J. Hockenson Playing in Week 14?
Hockenson is not on the injury report, and barring a surprise, he is expected to play.
We’ll continue to monitor the Vikings’ injury report leading up to kickoff for any changes. You can also visit and bookmark our Fantasy News Tracker for the latest updates.
Should You Start or Sit Hockenson in Week 14?
The pass catcher in this Minnesota offense that we were most willing to give up on early is now their most efficient?
Sometimes, I hate this game.
TJ Hockenson caught all six of his targets over the weekend, the third time in four games where a ball thrown his way didn’t hit the turf, a feat that was even more impressive when you consider that Max Brosmer was 13-of-24 with four interceptions when throwing to players not named Hockenson in Seattle.
This feels like a red herring at the highest level. The efficiency is well above expectations and with Jordan Addison/Justin Jefferson continuing to get looks, I’d expect natural regression to swing in their direction sooner than later.
Whether the WRs bounce back or not is one thing, but I’m not comfortable clicking Hockenson as a starter into critical matchups this week with “efficiency from Max Brosmer” being the leg I’m standing on.
