Gavin Bartholomew caught 5-of-6 targets for 33 yards in the Vikings’ Week 5 win over the Saints.
A sixth-round pick in 2025, Bartholomew didn’t see the field as a rookie. He logged his first career catch last week. With T.J. Hockenson leaving the game in the first quarter because of a concussion, Bartholomew stepped up as the team’s TE1. He was largely a check-down option for Kyler Murray, though that’s par for the course with Murray’s tight end. Hockenson should be cleared to return after a Week 6 bye, keeping Bartholomew off the fantasy radar for now.
