The T.J. Hockenson Revenge Game will have to wait until Week 18.
The Minnesota Vikings have just put out an update saying that the star tight end has been downgraded to out for tomorrow’s game at U.S. Bank Stadium against Detroit. The team also did the same for offensive lineman Dalton Risner.
The Vikings have until 25 October, which is six days away, to add Hockenson to the 53-man roster as a part of activating him from the Physically Unable to Perform List. The team could activate him for this Thursday’s contest against the Los Angeles Rams, which happens on 24 October, or put him on the roster the next day and let him prepare for the team’s Week 9 matchup with the Indianapolis Colts at U.
