Through five games, Minnesota Vikings wideout Justin Jefferson leads the team in receiving yards (571) and receptions (36), as well as yards per reception (15.9). Unfortunately, the Vikings will be without their star wideout for as many as six weeks after he suffered a hamstring injury against the Kansas City Chiefs.
The second-most productive pass-catcher on the Vikings this season has been tight end T.J. Hockenson, with 30 receptions for 254 yards (8.5 average). And he’s looking to be Kirk Cousins’ best option moving forward, even with wideouts Jordan Addison and K. J. Osborn in the mix. (Neither has seen as many targets as Hockenson.)
In Week 6, the Vikings face a Chicago Bears team that has allowed the second-most yards per game in the league (286), behind only the Los Angeles Chargers. And tight ends have fared well against the Bears this season; they have allowed the 10th-most yards (56.4) and fourth-most catches (6.8) per game to the position group.
Expect Hockenson to have what will be his third game of the season with more than 55 receiving yards.
