T.J. Hockenson News
Thursday, July 9, 10:21 AM
Across 15 games in 2025, Minnesota Vikings tight end T.J. Hockenson recorded 51 catches for 438 yards and three touchdowns on 66 targets. Like all the other pass-catchers for Minnesota, Hockenson's production was limited by the Vikings' bottom-tier quarterback play in 2025. Veteran signal-caller Kyler Murray brings more stability to Minnesota's passing game in 2026, although the team's overall offensive ecosystem is not guaranteed to be significantly improved. Hockenson is also showing signs of athletic decline as he enters his age-29 season, as he averaged a career-low 8.6 yards per reception in 2025. Additionally, the Vikings signed wide receiver Jauan Jennings in free agency, adding a quality target-earner and red-zone weapon to an offense that already features the star wide receiver duo of Justin Jefferson and Jordan Addison. Even at his current ADP of TE22 in redraft leagues, Hockenson may be a player for fantasy managers to avoid in 2026.

Greg Dulcich News
Wednesday, July 15, 10:49 AM
The Athletic's Jim Ayello writes that Miami Dolphins tight end Greg Dulcich "looks like a name to watch for those targeting a late-round tight end." Nobody should be expecting him to catch 100 passes in Miami's new-look offense, but who else is quarterback Malik Willis going to throw to? The 26-year-old former third-round pick by the Denver Broncos in 2022 out of UCLA has been a trendy sleeper pick in fantasy before because of his pass-catching prowess, but he's never lived up to the preseason hype, primarily due to injuries. Willis won't have any trustworthy receivers to throw the ball to in his first year in South Beach, and with the Dolphins expected to be pretty bad overall in 2026, there should be plenty of positive game script for Willis to throw the ball late in games. Ayello adds that the Dolphins' new regime clearly likes Dulcich after paying him $3.25 million to stay in Miami. In just 10 games in his first year with the Dolphins, Dulcich racked up 26 catches for 335 yards and a TD on 33 targets, so he has some upside as a volume-based TE2 sleeper in fantasy in 2026.
