Lions tight end T.J. Hockenson 'fighting back' after rookie season cut short by injury

Indianapolis — While the Detroit Lions are spending this week at the scouting combine getting a better feel for the batch of candidates that will eventually make up most, if not all of the team's 2020 rookie class, the team's 2019 first-round pick, tight end T.J. Hockenson, has been mentioned a few times in recent days.

Iowa offensive lineman Tristan Wirfs, a projected first-round pick in the upcoming draft, noted that Hockenson has been back on campus preparing for his second season with the Lions.
