Vikings sign TE Robert Tonyan

Former Bears and Packers TE Robert Tonyan signed with the Vikings.

Related Players: T.J. Hockenson, Josh Oliver, Johnny Mundt

Fantasy Impact:

Good move by Minnesota to solidify their pass-catching tight ends while Hockenson works his way back to the field. Tonyan had a down year behind Cole Kmet last season but should be able to rotate in toward the beginning of the year with Oliver and Mundt.

Vikings TE T.J. Hockenson "pretty sure" he'll play Week 10

T.J Hockenson is definitely still affected by his rib/oblique injury but says he is pretty sure he’ll play Sunday. “That’s the plan,” he said.

Related Players: Johnny Mundt, Josh Oliver

Fantasy Impact:

Mundt and Oliver have combined for 15 receptions this year, though Oliver would be the more likely option to take over pass-catching duties if Hockenson misses. Regardless, he shouldn't be in fantasy consideration for typical redraft leagues.

Vikings TE T.J. Hockenson sits out most of practice with lower back stiffness

T.J. Hockenson missed the majority of camp drills during the previous three weeks because of an ear infection that he said affected his equilibrium. That condition has resolved itself, coach Kevin O'Connell said Wednesday, but Hockenson "very recently" reported his back symptoms to the Vikings' medical staff. O'Connell classified Hockenson's absence as "day-to-day," and did not rule out a return to the field as early as Thursday's joint practice with the Arizona Cardinals, but such a quick return seems unlikely.

Fantasy Impact:

The article goes on to mention that these ailments could have something to do with the fact that Hockenson is still on his rookie deal and there has been "little progress in talks". If that's the case, we shouldn't push the TE any further down draft boards than he is currently going, as the threat of an actual holdout seems unlikely. If he's back on the field during joint practices on Thursday, this will ultimately feel like an overreaction.
