Done for day with concussion The Vikings downgraded Hockenson to out for Sunday's game against the Saints due to a concussion.

Impact After recording a seven-yard reception on the Vikings' opening possession, Hockenson immediately headed to the locker room to get checked for a head injury. With Minnesota confirming that he has sustained a concussion, Hockenson will be shut down for the rest of the afternoon and will now be subject to the NFL's five-step protocol. Minnesota is on bye for Week 6, so Hockenson's next chance to play will come against the Colts on Oct. 25.

Getting checked for possible concussion Hockenson is under evaluation for a possible concussion and is considered questionable to return to Sunday's game at New Orleans.

Impact Hockenson remained on the turf at the end of a seven-yard catch in the first quarter and went directly to the sideline tent afterward. If Hockenson isn't able to reenter the contest, Gavin Bartholomew and Ben Yurosek represent the Vikings' remaining available tight ends.

Big day in Week 4 win Hockenson caught all 13 of his targets for 119 yards in Sunday's 15-10 win over the Dolphins.

Impact The veteran tight end emerged as Kyler Murray's favorite target in the absence of Justin Jefferson (ankle), and as a result Hockenson produced his first game with 100-plus yards since 2024, when he popped for a 7-114-0 line against the Bears in Week 12. Hockenson came into Sunday with just 76 receiving yards, so he could have trouble repeating the performance even if Jefferson misses another game, but Murray had success feeding the ball to Trey McBride last year with Arizona as well -- McBride posted a 29-275-1 line on 42 targets during the five games they were in the lineup together. Hockenson will look to keep rolling in a Week 5 road trip to New Orleans.
