T.J. Hockenson (ribs, oblique) expected to play on limited basis in Vikings' Week 10 game
The Minnesota Vikings are expected to have tight end T.J. Hockenson (ribs, oblique) available in a limited capacity for Sunday's Week 10 game against the New Orleans Saints.
What It Means:
Hockenson made it through the Vikings' insane Week 9 victory over the Atlanta Falcons, but took multiple massive hits over the course of the game and was clearly banged up by the end of it. It sounds like he is still limited by the injuries he suffered during that win, so while he is expected to play, the Vikings may curb his reps in an effort not to overwork him.
Hockenson has been a consistent producer in fantasy this season with Kirk Cousins (Achilles) under center and even continued his solid production in Week 9 with Jaren Hall and Joshua Dobbs at the helm. He's projected for 9.4 fantasy points against the Saints this weekend and has a $6,600 salary on FanDuel.
