The Vikings offense is loaded in every way, at every position. Of course, with a high-powered offense like the Vikings', they come with some notable fantasy football assets.
During the 2026 season here on Vikings Wire, we will review all fantasy-relevant skill players for the team and share whether they are worth a start.
Each position has players that can help or hurt your fantasy team, so this will be a form of start or sit. In this piece, we will be looking at T.J. Hockenson.
Week 5 was a bit of a dud for him after suffering a concussion on the opening drive. Fans were hoping he could build off a career day in Week 4, but coming off the concussion and the Bye Week, more questions were being asked. With his play, he answered some of those questions with
an impressive TE1 finish in Week 7 after finding the endzone.
He seems to have carved out a role in the offense, finally with Kyler Murray, and is a sneaky TE1 play in fantasy lineups in Week 8.
