Lions trade TE T.J. Hockenson to Vikings
The Lions are trading tight end T.J. Hockenson to the Vikings ahead of the NFL trade deadline, NFL Network's Tom Pelissero.
Minnesota will send Detroit a second-round pick in 2023 and a third-round pick in 2024 in return for Hockenson, a fourth-round pick in 2023 and a conditional fourth-round pick in 2024.
Detroit drafted Hockenson with pick No. 8 overall in the 2019 NFL draft, but in 3.5 years with the team, the tight end never reached 1,000 yards receiving in a season. This year, he has just 395 receiving yards and three touchdowns in seven games.
