Vikings TE T.J. Hockenson (knee) will be activated from the PUP list and practice on Friday, HC Kevin O'Connell said. The team will have three weeks from that point to move Hockenson onto the active roster. He won't play vs. the Jets this weekend, and then the Vikings have a Week 6 bye. But Hockenson should be back for Week 7, or Week 8 at the latest. Check to see if he's available in your league. Considering the state of the TE position, Hockenson could be a top-five option over the second half of the season.
