Oliver out for season with biceps tear; elite 139.4 pass rating.

Elite pass-catching TE Josh Oliver is out for the season with a biceps tear suffered while protecting on a field goal attempt. In 50 games for Minnesota, Oliver caught 62 of 80 targets (77.5%) for 677 yards and nine TDs, and owns the highest receiver pass rating (139.4) among TEs targeted at least 40 times since joining Minnesota in 2023. His loss is significant both for his elite run-blocking ability (nicknamed 'The Sears Tower' by Kirk Cousins) and his reliable pass-catching, creating major opportunity for backup TEs.
