Welcome to SB Nation Reacts, a fan-focused survey series that hops from city to city across the NFL. Throughout the year we pose questions to the most plugged-in Vikings supporters and fans from around the country. Sign up here to participate in our weekly emailed surveys and have your voice counted.
It’s time once again for another SB Nation Reacts poll centered on the Minnesota Vikings, inviting readers of the internet’s premier sports site to weigh in on a topic that matters. Last week we asked about who would lead the team in a notable defensive statistical category, and this week we’re turning our attention to the offense.
We want to know who you think will lead the Vikings in touchdown receptions during the 2026 season. It’s easy to assume that Justin Jefferson will post a big bounce-back year after a challenging 2025, but there’s an important context to consider. Jefferson has led the Vikings in touchdown receptions outright only twice in his six seasons with the team — 2022 and 2024. He also tied for the team lead in 2021 with Adam Thielen, giving him a shared lead on three occasions in six seasons.
The supporting cast surrounding Jefferson is rich with potential. Jauan Jennings, who joined the 49ers from nearby San Francisco, led his former team with nine receiving touchdowns last season. In addition, Jordan Addison, back in 2023 as a rookie, delivered 10 touchdown receptions. Those examples show that this Vikings offense could feature multiple players capable of leading in touchdowns at different times. Tight end T.J. Hockenson remains a viable red-zone threat and could play a significant role in this race as well, assuming he remains healthy and fully integrated into the offense.
With all of these factors in mind, we want your take on who you believe will lead the Vikings in touchdown receptions in 2026. Will it be one of the standout receivers, perhaps Jefferson, Addison, or Jennings? Could Hockenson reclaim some of the prolific form he showed before his knee injury? Or is there another player on the roster who might surprise us all and seize the lead in touchdowns a year from now?
As always, you can let your voice be heard by casting a vote in our poll below and by sharing your thoughts in the comments section. We encourage you to participate and share your reasoning. And stay tuned — we’ll publish the results of this week’s poll over the weekend.
