Starting Potential For T.J. Hockenson In Week 7

Friday, October 23, 12:11 PM

Minnesota Vikings tight end T.J. Hockenson is a fringe TE1 when the Indianapolis Colts visit U.S. Bank Stadium in Week 7. The former Iowa star looked to be developing a legitimate chemistry with quarterback Kyler Murray, who targeted him 13 times in their most recent full game together. Unfortunately for managers who started the tight end in Week 5, a first-quarter concussion stalled the momentum. Now through concussion protocol and off the injury report, Hockenson's volume is something of a mystery because the Vikings' full complement of skill players have played less than a full quarter together so far this season. Receiver Justin Jefferson remains the club's top option every time he plays, though Hockenson appears to already have Murray's trust on key downs and as an underneath option, which warrants fantasy consideration. Hockenson is RotoBaller's No. 13 tight end this week.

Jalen Coker Should Excel Against Weak Defense in Week 7

Friday, October 23, 3:18 PM

Carolina Panthers wide receiver Jalen Coker impressed in his Week 6 return, but can he keep it up in Week 7 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers? Coker had six receptions for 97 yards in Week 6 after being previously sidelined with a quadriceps injury. The third-year wideout also saw 75% of the snap share in that game, although it's likely his workload will balance out more with teammate Tetairoa McMillan against a struggling Buccaneers passing defense. Carolina has tougher defensive matchups down the road, but Coker should excel in a second straight healthy effort. Coker is a solid WR2 ahead of Week 7, with RotoBaller ranking him 18th in the position standings.
