Is T.J. Hockenson playing on Thanksgiving?
UPDATE: Hockenson is officially ACTIVE.
Hockenson has been listed as a limited participant in practice on both Monday and Tuesday, but he practiced in full on Wednesday.. He’s dealing with the same shoulder injury that he played through in Week 12, although he didn’t record a catch.
The bigger concern with Hockenson, whether Jeff Driskel or David Blough is playing quarterback, is his lack of production. Not including Hockenson’s huge debut, he’s averaged 3.9 targets per week. No matter how explosive he is, that’s usage makes him tough to trust outside of deeper leagues.
A Hockenson absence would mean more playing time for both Jesse James and Logan Thomas. While James isn’t much of a pass-catcher, Thomas could be a sneaky DFS value if Hockenson is inactive.
