The Minnesota Vikings have made a decision on the return of tight end T.J. Hockenson. They will be opening the practice window of Hockenson on Friday ahead of Sunday's game against the New York Jets.

Not only is Hockenson going to have his practice window opened, they will have Hockenson travel with the team to London and he will practice with the team on Friday.

Hockenson has been vigorously rehabbing his knee with the Vikings and there has been a lot of hope for him to return right after the bye either against the Detroit Lions or Los Angeles Rams in week seven or eight.

Opening the window now does technically mean the Vikings could bring him back on Sunday against the New York Jets but it's highly unlikely that he returns. When the Vikings do get him back, the offense will have its full arsenal back in full force.
