Between the Lines: Minnesota Vikings 33, New England Patriots 26 | Thanksgiving Game

Danielle Hunter Discusses the Minnesota Vikings Thanksgiving Win Over the New England Patriots

T.J. Hockenson - Finds end zone in win Hockenson brought in five of six targets for 43 yards and a touchdown in the Vikings' 33-26 win over the Patriots on Thursday night.
Impact Hockenson was Kirk Cousins' top non-wideout target for the night, and he scored his first touchdown as a member of the Vikings with a one-yard grab late in the first half. Hockenson has quickly put together a robust 26-192-1 line over his first four games in Minnesota, sending him into a Week 13 home matchup versus the Jets with plenty of momentum.
NOVEMBER 25, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Adam Thielen - Resurgent effort in Week 12 win Thielen secured nine of 10 targets for 61 yards and a touchdown in the Vikings' 33-26 win over the Patriots on Thursday night.
Impact Thielen tied Justin Jefferson for the team lead in receptions and finished second to his star teammate in receiving yards and targets. The sure-handed veteran wideout's catch total was a season high, and it marked his first time over the 50-yard mark in three games. Thielen's third touchdown of the season, a 15-yard score with 9:34 remaining, also proved to be the difference in the game, making it a highly productive all-around night. Thielen's first opportunity to build on Thursday's performance comes in a Week 13 home matchup against the Jets a week from Sunday.
NOVEMBER 25, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Dalvin Cook - Bottled up in Week 12 win Cook rushed 22 times for 42 yards and brought in four of five targets for 14 yards in the Vikings' 33-26 win over the Patriots on Thursday night.
Impact Cook's final rushing line underscores how rough the sledding on the ground was for him against a Patriots defense that had been elite against the run in recent games. Cook's long run went for only six yards, although he helped avoid a complete fantasy washout for managers in PPR formats by tying his second-highest catch total of the season. Cook's next assignment doesn't project as much more appealing, either, as he'll face the tough Jets defense in a Week 13 home matchup a week from Sunday.

Kirk Cousins - Productive in Week 12 win Cousins completed 30 of 37 passes for 299 yards with three touchdowns and one interception in the Vikings' 33-26 win over the Patriots on Thursday night. He also netted minus-1 yar...
Impact Cousins rose to the challenge against a tough Patriots defense, following his forgettable 105-yard performance against the Cowboys four days prior. The veteran signal-caller opened the scoring with a six-yard touchdown pass to Justin Jefferson to cap off the first possession of the game before subsequently hitting T.J. Hockenson and Adam Thielen for additional touchdown tosses in the second and fourth quarter, respectively. The latter closed out a clutch six-play, 71-yard march that ended up being the difference in the game, and it afforded Cousins his first three-touchdown effort of the season. He'll aim to keep the Vikings offense hot in an unenviable Week 13 home matchup against the Jets a week from Sunday.

Justin Jefferson - Bounces back in Week 12 win Jefferson secured nine of 11 targets for 139 yards and a touchdown in the Vikings' 33-26 win over the Patriots on Thursday night. He also completed his only pass attempt for 11 yar...
Impact Jefferson shared the team lead in receptions with Adam Thielen and paced the Vikings in yardage and targets. The star wideout's performance, which also included a six-yard touchdown reception with 10:40 remaining in the first quarter, was a major resurgence from his three-catch, 33-yard tally in the team's Week 11 blowout loss to Dallas. Jefferson has now eclipsed the century mark in three of the last four games and six of his last eight contests overall, a torrid stretch he'll aim to extend in a Week 13 home matchup against the stingy Jets defense a week from Sunday.

Dalvin Tomlinson - Missing fourth straight game Tomlinson (calf) is inactive for Thursday's game against the Patriots, Ben Goessling of the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports.
Impact Since picking up a calf issue back in Week 8, Tomlinson didn't practice before being inactive for the Vikings' previous three contests. While the team didn't hold sessions this week, he was listed as limited on all three injury reports, leading to a questionable designation for Week 12. In the end, though, Minnesota will take a cautious approach with Tomlinson and keep him in street clothes Thursday with an eye toward returning to action Sunday, Dec. 4 against the Jets, per Tom Pelissero of NFL Network.

Andrew Booth Jr. - Unavailable against Patriots Booth (knee) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Patriots, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports.
Impact Booth racked up a season-high nine tackles during last week's loss to the Cowboys but was unable to practice this week due to his knee injury. His next chance to suit up will be Dec. 4 against the Jets.
NOVEMBER 23, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Akayleb Evans - Won't play Thursday Evans (concussion) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against New England, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports.
Impact Evans was a limited participant at practice all week, and he'll be forced to miss a second consecutive game since the Vikings have a short week. Andrew Booth (knee) has also been ruled out, so Duke Shelley should see additional playing time in Minnesota's secondary.
NOVEMBER 23, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Za'Darius Smith - No injury designation Smith (knee) doesn't carry an injury designation for Thursday's game against the Patriots, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports.
Impact Smith was limited at practice Monday and Tuesday, but he was a full participant Wednesday and will be available for the Vikings' matchup against New England. Over the last four games, he's tallied 15 tackles (12 solo), including four sacks, and four pass defenses.
