Minnesota Vikings TE Kyle Rudolph faces the Detroit Lions in Week 2, and in six career meetings with Detroit, Rudolph is averaging 34.5 receiving yards and has one total touchdown.

Footballguys View: We have Rudolph as a solid TE1 this week, despite the history. This is partly because Rudolph might see plenty of dump targets with the offensive line as bad as it is. Some quick and short passes by Teddy Bridgewater might keep him from being crushed by the Lions front seven.
