Justin Jefferson Continues To Be A Lone Bright Spot
There isn’t a whole of positives that can be found about a team holding a 1-5 record, as in the case of the Minnesota Vikings. However, one talent that has stood out in a major way has been rookie wideout Justin Jefferson.
Against the Atlanta Falcons, Jefferson racked up an impressive nine catches, 166 yards, and two touchdowns. Not only did this mark the third performance of his career with over 100 receiving yards, it was his first outing with multiple touchdowns.
The big-play ability that Jefferson has displayed after the catch has been a true sight to behold. It wasn’t an easy task to replace Stefon Diggs, but the Vikings appear to have found their long-term answer at wideout alongside Adam Thielen.
The level of potential Jefferson has displayed so far in his NFL career has been quite impressive. He’s quickly emerging as one of the most exciting young offensive weapons in the league.
