  Vikings | Minnesota hopes to keep Kirk Cousins    Sun Feb 11, 01:43 PM

Minnesota Vikings impending free-agent QB Kirk Cousins is a player the Vikings hope to re-sign this offseason, according to NFL Network's Tom Pelissero.

Footballguys view: The Vikings want to keep Cousins, but the price has to be right. Cousins should have plenty of interest on the open market, and the Vikings have to think about a future after (or without) Cousins.

  Vikings | T.J. Hockenson may miss start of season    Thu Feb 8, 09:59 AM

Minnesota Vikings TE T.J. Hockenson (knee) may be out until October as he had to delay surgery to repair his anterior cruciate ligament until Jan. 29 in order to let his medial collateral ligament heal.

Footballguys view: This is something that needs to be monitored in the offseason, but more specifically, when we get back to training camp in the summer. Hockenson injured his knee on Christmas Eve, so it would be miraculous if he's ready for Week 1. Instead, he could be put on PUP to begin the 2024 season. That would mean he's out for six weeks to begin the season.

  Vikings | T.J. Hockenson undergoes surgery    Tue Jan 30, 11:22 AM

Minnesota Vikings TE T.J. Hockenson (knee) underwent surgery Monday, Jan. 29, to repair his torn anterior cruciate ligament.

Footballguys view: Hockenson was injured in late December and waited just over a month to have surgery. That puts his start of the 2024 season in doubt, and there's a chance Hockenson could begin on the Physically Unable to Perform List.

  Vikings | Jordan Addison joined short list    Sat Jan 27, 12:53 AM

Minnesota Vikings WR Jordan Addison finished with 911 receiving yards and 10 touchdowns, becoming the fifth rookie since 2000 to have 900-plus receiving yards and 10 or more touchdowns.

Footballguys view: No surprise here. Addison was great in college at both PITT and USC, so it didn't take the 2023 first-round pick long to make consistent plays in the NFL. We'll see if the Vikings bring back QB Kirk Cousins in free agency, but even if it's somebody new slinging him passes, we feel Addison should only continue to grow in his career and his production.

  Vikings | Kirk Cousins making good progress in rehab    Fri Jan 26, 03:23 PM

Minnesota Vikings QB Kirk Cousins (Achilles) is reportedly ahead of schedule in his recovery from Achilles surgery and expects to resume throwing before the start of the NFL Scouting Combine, according to a source.

Footballguys view: Cousins will be a very important free agent, one whose decision could cause a ripple effect in other quarterback situations. It still seems more likely than not that he'll return to the Vikings, but if he lands somewhere like Atlanta, it could change a lot of fantasy fortunes.
