T.J. Hockenson News
Wednesday, August 19, 5:13 PM
Minnesota Vikings tight end T.J. Hockenson hasn't been the same on the field since tearing his ACL in January of 2024. Since returning from injury, Hockenson has 92 receptions for 893 receiving yards and three touchdowns across 25 games. He hasn't been horrible, but Hockenson used to be a top-five player at his position. It's tough to have success when J.J. McCarthy, Carson Wentz, and Max Brosmer are offering subpar play at the quarterback spot. The hope is that the 29-year-old bounces back with Kyler Murray under center for the Vikings to begin the season. Murray had a ton of success when he was in Arizona with stud tight end Trey McBride. Fantasy managers shouldn't expect Hockenson to be a top option at his position, but he could offer viable TE2 value.

Elijah Arroyo News
Wednesday, August 19, 7:27 PM
Seattle Seahawks tight end Elijah Arroyo is rising at training camp and could make an impact in his second season. Arroyo is coming off a disappointing production season, totaling 179 yards and one touchdown in 13 games. Behind starter AJ Barner, Arroyo is likely to have a difficult time being a fantasy-relevant piece, but he has been a standout in recent weeks at camp. Barner said earlier this week that "he's balling. It's going to be a big year for him and the rest of the tight ends." New offensive coordinator Brian Fleury is expected to run a lot of 12- and 13-personnel this season, which should help Arroyo get on the field and make an impact. While Barner is likely to remain the TE1 this season, Arroyo could be an intriguing name to watch in deep leagues or dynasty formats.
