"Hockenson is eyeing a bounce-back following a 2024 season in which he missed Weeks 1-7 and was limited a bit upon his return while rebounding from a torn ACL suffered in 2023. Hockenson appeared in 10 regular-season games, but was limited to 60% of the snaps and averaged 6.1 targets and 8.7 fantasy points per game. That's a far cry from his 80% snap share, 8.5 targets per game and 14.6 PPG the season prior. Hockenson entered last season having finished seventh or better among TEs in fantasy PPG four years in a row (top 5 in both 2022 and 2023), so it's reasonable to expect him to return to that level in 2025. New QB J.J. McCarthy is a wild card, but Kevin O'Connell's pass-friendly offense should help keep Hockenson in the weekly TE1 mix."

"Hockenson was held out of practice all week due to a shoulder injury that he likely picked up against the Giants on Sunday, and the injury has been deemed severe enough for the veteran tight end to be sidelined for Christmas Day. Josh Oliver, Ben Yurosek and Ben Sims will step into larger roles in Week 17, though their fantasy floors will be far lower given that Max Brosmer is under center for the Vikings due to J.J. McCarthy (hand) being ruled out. Hockenson's next and final opportunity to play this season is Week 18 against the Packers on Sunday, Jan. 4."
