T.J. Hockenson linked up with Kirk Cousins early on Saturday. Hockenson caught a TD great pass from Cousins in the back of the end zone.

Hockenson joined the Minnesota Vikings on Nov. 1 after spending the majority of his NFL career with the Detroit Lions. It looks like Cousins appreciates having another weapon to throw passes to.

Cousins dropped back in the pocket and took a shot from a New York Giants pass rusher while delivering the ball to Hockenson. Hockenson was left open and just had to make the 12-yard TD catch.

The Minnesota Vikings clinched an NFC playoff spot after completing the largest comeback in NFL history in Week 15 against the Indianapolis Colts. The Vikings were down 33-0 going into halftime and ended up beating the Colts in overtime 39-36.

All that’s left now is for Minnesota to do now is to take care of business against the Giants before facing the Green Bay Packers to cap of its season on New Year’s Day.
