Tight End U was at it again Sunday, with a Notre Dame product doing damage at the position and again helping his team to victory.
Kyle Rudolph found the end zone for the Minnesota Vikings not once but twice on Sunday Night Football at Dallas.
Rudolph was twice on the receiving end of one-yard Kirk Cousins touchdown passes in the first quarter, helping to get the Vikings to an early 14-0 lead. His first reception was as good of catch as you’ll see a tight end make.

Rudolph finished with four receptions for just 14 yards total but that number looks a lot more important when two of them were for scores, giving him 45 career touchdowns in his now nine-year NFL career.
The Vikings held off a Cowboys comeback to move to 7-3 on the season, plenty alive in the NFC playoff chase. Rudolph now has four touchdowns over the last three games after being kept out of the end zone the first six weeks of the season.
