From the episode

The way that they moved the ball in this last game was just like quick throws to TJ Hawkinson where he didn't have to read things out. It was just like, all right, a little hitch to TJ Hawkinson or like a scene pass where you're not like reading out a defense.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalUsage

Hockenson getting pre-snap throws; likely to see heavy usage without Jefferson.

TJ Hockenson is being used heavily on quick throws and scene passes where Kyler Murray doesn't have to read the defense; he's getting pre-snap throws and hitches. Matt Harmon expects Hockenson to continue producing 'scam production' this week if Justin Jefferson is out, as the Vikings will pepper him with stick concepts.
