Minnesota Vikings

Minnesota Vikings tight end T.J. Hockenson caught 4-of-5 targets for 45 yards in Sunday's 42-21 win over the Atlanta Falcons. It's a slightly disappointing performance for the 27-year-old on a day when quarterback Sam Darnold threw for five touchdowns and a career-high 347 yards. Hockenson was the team's third-leading receiver in targets, yardage, and receptions on the afternoon. Still, production was hard to come by, with wideouts Jordan Addison and Justin Jefferson combining for 15 catches, 265 yards, and all five scores on 19 of Darnold's 28 attempts. The Iowa alum will look to elevate his stat line next Monday night in a rematch against the Chicago Bears at home. Hockenson's last meeting with the Bears produced a season-best seven receptions and 114 yards in Week 12.

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Jordan Addison brought in eight of 12 targets for 133 yards and three touchdowns in his team's 42-21 win over the Atlanta Falcons on Sunday. After not having done such all season, the second-year wideout went over 100 receiving yards for the second time in his last three outings. It was the first time he scored three TDs in a game, and his receiving total is the second-highest mark of his career. Addison has out-caught, out-targeted, and out-received teammate Justin Jefferson in two of their last three games. After not doing much for most of the season, the 22-year-old suddenly has viable fantasy performances in four of his last six appearances. He'll look to continue his streak of production in a rematch against their division-rival Chicago Bears in Week 15. Addison ripped off eight catches and a touchdown on 162 yards in their previous meeting.

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Justin Jefferson hauled in all seven of his targets for 132 yards and two touchdowns in Week 14's 42-21 win over the Atlanta Falcons. The 25-year-old hadn't hit pay dirt since Week 7 but made up for that in a big way on Sunday with a massive performance. Minnesota's offense was clicking on all cylinders this afternoon as quarterback Sam Darnold tossed five touchdowns against a hapless Falcons defense. It was Jefferson's first two-touchdown performance since Week 4 of 2023. The first of which was a leaping 12-yard grab in the end zone as he ran a pristine route, shaking his defender just enough to offer a window of separation. His second of the day was far easier, as a blown coverage by the Falcons left the superstar receiver wide-open for a 52-yard score. Jefferson will square off against the Chicago Bears again in Week 15. In their last meeting, he was held to 27 yards and two receptions on five targets.

Minnesota Vikings running back Aaron Jones handled 13 carries for 73 yards and a score in his team's 42-21 victory over the Atlanta Falcons in Week 14. He added 11 yards on 2-of-2 receiving. The former Green Bay Packer bounced back again from a down week, this time with his best efficiency since way back in Week 7 (5.62 YPC). It was Jones' third touchdown over the last three weeks. Additionally, it was his first time in four games without a fumble -- an encouraging outcome for the 29-year-old. While his yardage totals haven't been outrageous, the former fifth-round pick has been a reliable RB2 in 2024. Jones gets a rematch with the Chicago Bears next Monday, who he just totaled 129 yards and a TD against back in Week 12.

Minnesota Vikings quarterback Sam Darnold completed 22 of 28 passes for 347 yards and five touchdowns in Sunday's 42-21 win over the Atlanta Falcons. He rushed four times for seven yards and completed his third straight outing with no turnovers. The USC product came out hot in this one, pushing the ball deep early and often including 49- and 52-yard scores to his star pass-catchers. His yardage total and TD output are new career highs. Darnold tossed all five of his touchdowns to wide receivers Jordan Addison (three) and Justin Jefferson (two), while both wideouts went over 130 yards in the contest. It was an impressive performance for the seventh-year field general, who has been stellar this season -- particularly over his last four appearances, turning in an 11:0 TD:INT ratio. He'll get a rematch in Week 15 with the Chicago Bears, who he beat in OT a few weeks back.
