5 minMinnesota Vikings vs. Denver Broncos Prediction: Can T.J. Hockenson Shine on Sunday Night Football?
The books have T.J. Hockenson’s receiving yards line set at 54.5 which is a head scratcher. The Minnesota Vikings star tight end has surpassed this line in four consecutive outings recording 69+ yards in every game during that span.

Minnesota Vikings vs. Denver Broncos Prediction
Justin Jefferson is still sidelined which means Hockenson will operate as the lead target for his offense. In his first game with Joshua Dobbs as the starter, Hockenson lit up the stat sheet by hauling in 11 receptions for 134 yards.
In addition, the Denver Broncos have a defense that funnels production to opposing tight-ends. They are extremely strong on the outside which forces teams to rely on their tight-ends in the short passing game and over the middle of the field.
Denver is allowing the most yards per game to the position and I expect Hockenson to take advantage of the plus matchup. Expect another busy night for him with Justin Jefferson sidelined. Take the over on T.J. Hockenson receiving yards.
