Vikings TE Josh Oliver Tears Biceps, Out Indefinitely

Minnesota Vikings tight end Josh Oliver will miss extended time after tearing his biceps, head coach Kevin O'Connell confirmed on Monday.

O'Connell revealed the injury following Sunday's win over the Buccaneers and stated Oliver is set to undergo surgery. The tight end played 55 percent of the offensive snaps this season, recording three catches for 46 yards. mwafrika.life

O'Connell described Oliver as a "big part" of the team's plans, meaning the offense will need to adjust. T.J. Hockenson and Gavin Bartholomew are the primary tight ends remaining on the roster.
