Justin Jefferson

Justin Jefferson showcased his elite talent in 2023, finishing 5th in points per game despite missing seven games and losing starting QB Kirk Cousins. With 68 receptions for over 1,000 yards and 5 touchdowns, he commanded a 28% target share and excelled even without Cousins on the field, averaging 18.4 points per game in the final stretch. Before Cousins' injury, he led all WRs in fantasy points scored (21.7 per game). Heading into 2024, Jefferson's ability to thrive regardless of the quarterback situation positions him as one of the NFL's top receivers, supported by the offensive infrastructure set up by Kevin O'Connell.

Vikings WR Justin Jefferson is not present for the start of OTAs.

Fantasy Impact

Jefferson will likely not show up for voluntary workouts as he continues to negotiate a new contract with the Vikings. Mandatory minicamp begins in early-June, so he could choose to appear then to avoid any fines for an absence.
