The Vikings have had some pretty great pass catchers throughout their history.
Randy Moss. Cris Carter. Anthony Carter. Stefon Diggs. Adam Thielen. To name a few.
Tight end Kyle Rudolph probably doesn’t enter many of those conversations and understandably so considering he’s only had 4,154 receiving yards over nine seasons.
With that being said, Rudolph has been a touchdown machine during his time with the Vikings, catching 47 touchdowns in his career, including six last season.
Rudolph needs just four receiving touchdowns to pass Sammy White for fourth all-time on the team’s list and six to pass Anthony Carter for third in team history.
After that, well, Rudolph would still be 40 touchdowns behind Moss for second in team history.
Over the last five seasons, Rudolph, 30, has averaged six receiving touchdowns per game.
