He's been awesome! Kyle Rudolph gets some longevity points I suppose but I think Hockenson is the best TE this team has had in a very long time. Fantastic trade by Kwesi.

Probably our best TE since Steve Jordan, and potentially even better than that.

Beat me to it...

I agree with Seifert on an opportunity area for TJH and that is YAC (especially relative to Kelce and Kittle). I suspect some of that may be how the Vikings are utilizing the position vs SF and KC.

Ok,  lets pump the brakes on the hyperbole a bit... I mean you are talking about Steve Jordan here... please show some respect.  ;)

Well...he's not there yet, but he's only 25 and if the Vikings can keep the CK, KO and JJ thing going for a while, I like his chances.
