T.J. Hockenson News
Monday, June 15, 8:38 AM
Across 15 games in 2025, Minnesota Vikings tight end T.J. Hockenson recorded 51 receptions for 438 yards and three touchdowns on 66 targets. While Hockenson's numbers don't jump off the page, the Vikings got some of the worst quarterback play in the league in 2025 from the trio of J.J. McCarthy, Carson Wentz, and Max Brosmer. Minnesota's passing game should be significantly improved in 2026 following the offseason acquisition of veteran quarterback Kyler Murray. Still, Hockenson's production has been trending downwards in recent years, and he's now entering his age-29 season and the final year of his current contract with the Vikings. Minnesota also signed former San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Jauan Jennings in free agency, who seems likely to take Hockenson's role as the tertiary pass-catcher in Minnesota alongside star wideouts Justin Jefferson and Jordan Addison. Dynasty managers may want to consider selling Hockenson before his stock drops even further in 2026.

Kyle Pitts Sr. News
Monday, June 15, 5:38 AM
Atlanta Falcons tight end Kyle Pitts Sr. finished as 2025's TE2, and while much of the heavy lifting was done in an 11-catch, three-touchdown outing that went down as one of the most productive tight end games in NFL history, there is optimism that his role in Kevin Stefanski's tight end-friendly offense could help to deliver more consistent week-winning performances. His career year came while running his most routes since entering the NFL, and with Stefanski and offensive coordinator Tommy Rees deploying the league's highest rate of 12-personnel usage in their final season in Cleveland, Pitts should benefit from some of the same looks that allowed Harold Fannin Jr. to reach triple-digit targets as a rookie. Entering his sixth season, Pitts is remarkably still just 25 years old, and with some fantasy managers long over waiting for the true breakout that has been predicted since 2021, he has become a potential bargain at RotoBaller's dynasty TE8.
