T.J. HockensonTEMIN

Vikings tight end took a pay cut to remain with the team at $15 million salary; snap count could be reduced if the Vikings increase fullback usage under Frank Smith's scheme. With Josh Oliver as a superior blocking tight end and Jauan Jennings as a WR/TE hybrid option, Hockenson is a candidate to lose snaps to the new fullback-heavy approach, though he could have a bounce-back season if retained at current levels.
