Vikings tight end Kyle Rudolph has been less involved as a receiver this season, but he made the most of his opportunities in Week 10 against the Cowboys in Dallas.
Rudolph caught four passes for 14 yards, scoring on two of the catches. His first touchdown was insane.
The veteran tight end finished with a Pro Football Focus grade of 86.8 on the week, landing him a spot on PFF’s Team of the Week.
No other Viking made the team from their 28-24 primetime win.
Rudolph has been more of a blocking tight end this season, and it shows his professionalism that he hasn’t really complained about it.
On the season, Rudolph has 24 catches on 30 targets for 184 yards and four touchdowns. That puts him on pace for 38 catches for 294 yards and six touchdowns. Those aren’t the numbers you’d expect from Rudolph, but he’s doing more than what’s simply on the box score.
