T.J. Hockenson

Addison easily led the team in targets. Justin Jefferson was held to two catches on six targets for four yards while T.J. Hockenson caught all six of his targets for a team-leading 59 yards. Undrafted QB Max Brosmer, making his first NFL start, peppered Addison in the second half with the Seattle secondary shading toward Jefferson. Addison's fantasy floor will remain low no matter which quarterback starts for Minnesota next week against the Falcons.

It was Hockenson's best game of the 2025 season, and it came with undrafted rookie QB Max Brosmer under center while JJ McCarthy deals with a head injury he sustained in Week 12. Hockenson was second on the team in targets and led all Minnesota pass catchers with 59 yards. He had more than 30 receiving yards just five times in 2025 headed into Week 13. Perhaps Brosmer's check-down tendencies can make Hockenson fantasy relevant again if the rookie gets another start in Week 14 against the Falcons.

Hockenson managed a five-yard catch on third-and-9, a five-yard catch on second-and-17, a four-yard catch on third-and-12, and a five-yard catch on first-and-10. He also was stuffed on a third-and-1 quarterback sneak as the acting sneaker. Nobody is surviving the J.J. McCarthy blast radius in Minnesota as a usable fantasy option right now, and Hockenson is a TE2 as a result.

Hockenson had two crucial drops in this one, doing no favors for his struggling young quarterback, who completed just 48 percent of his throws. With six total receptions over his past three outings, Hockenson's meager Week 11 stat line is one of his best of the 2025 season. The veteran is a distance third or fourth option in the low-volume Minnesota passing offense and probably should not be started in 12-team leagues next week against the Packers.
