Hockenson (ribs) was a limited participant in practice Wednesday.
In the wake of the Vikings' 31-28 win in Atlanta this past Sunday, head coach Kevin O'Connell told Ben Goessling of the Minneapolis Star Tribune that Hockenson was dealing with an oblique or rib issue. O'Connell also expressed hope Monday that the tight end would be able to play through the injury, according to Goessling. Hockenson is being listed with only the rib issue on the Vikings' official Week 10 injury report, and the tight end will have two more chances to get back to full activity in practice before the team potentially makes a ruling on his availability for Sunday's game against the Saints.
