As the NFL ventures into the slowest portion of the year, the Vikings are working toward locking several of their core players. Justin Jefferson, of course, stands out as the main player looking for an extension, but the talented tight end isn’t too far behind. Indeed, T.J. Hockenson’s future appears to involve wearing purple and gold.
The reality at this point, though, is that nothing has been finalized with the former Lion. He’s currently working with a single year left on his deal, the 5th-year option that emanates from being an opening-round selection back in the 2019 NFL Draft where he was chosen 8th overall.
