Minnesota Vikings WR Justin Jefferson caught six passes for 81 yards against the Tennessee Titans in Week 11. He was targeted eight times during the game.
Huddle Up: Jefferson has posted at least 80 yards in eight of his last nine games but has gone four straight games without a touchdown. He should continue to be one of the best receivers in the NFL and is a must-start option in all fantasy leagues.

Minnesota Vikings WR Justin Jefferson ended up with five receptions for 48 yards on nine targets in Week 10 against the Jacksonville Jaguars.
Huddle Up: Jefferson had several streaks snapped on Sunday. He had two straight 100-yard games come to an end, while his run of six games in a row with six or more grabs halted. He also had managed at least 81 receiving yards in each of the previous seven contests, so this really wasn't a very good game by his standards. He'll look to rebound in Week 11 at Tennessee.

Minnesota Vikings WR Justin Jefferson hauled in seven of his nine targets for a season-high 137 yards in Week 9 against the Indianapolis Colts. Jefferson also completed a 22-yard throw to Aaron Jones on a double-pass play.
Huddle Up: Jefferson was curiously not targeted on the first drive of the game (11 plays), but Sam Darnold made up for lost time after that. All but one of Jefferson's catches went for at least 20 yards, including a 41-yard grab in the third quarter that set up a go-ahead touchdown. While he has been held out of the end zone in three of the last four games, it is hard to find much other fault with what Jefferson is doing for his fantasy managers. He is a great bet to rediscover the end zone in Week 10 against the struggling defense of the Jacksonville Jaguars.

Minnesota Vikings WR Justin Jefferson caught eight passes for a game-high 115 yards in Week 8 against the Los Angeles Rams. He was targeted nine times.
Huddle Up: Jefferson continues to be arguably the most consistent wideout in the NFL. Ever since totaling 59 yards in Week 1, the former All-Pro has topped 80 yards in six straight games and added touchdowns in four of them. He's a matchup-proof WR1.

Minnesota Vikings WR Justin Jefferson caught seven passes for 81 yards and one touchdown against the Detroit Lions in Week 7. He was targeted eight times during the game.
Huddle Up: Jefferson has posted at least 80 yards in each of the last five games and has a touchdown in five of the six games this season. He is a must-start option in all fantasy leagues.

Minnesota Vikings WR Justin Jefferson caught six passes for 92 yards against the New York Jets in Week 5. He was targeted 14 times during the game.
Huddle Up: Jefferson saw his four-game touchdown streak snapped this week but has posted at least 80 yards in each of the last four games. He is a must-start option in all leagues when healthy.

Minnesota Vikings WR Justin Jefferson caught six passes for 85 yards and one touchdown against the Green Bay Packers in Week 4. He was targeted eight times during the game.

Minnesota Vikings WR Justin Jefferson caught six passes for 81 yards and one touchdown against the Houston Texans in Week 3. He was targeted eight times during the game.
Huddle Up: Jefferson remains one of the best receivers in the NFL and is a must-start option in all fantasy leagues as long as he is healthy.

Minnesota Vikings WR Jordan Addison (ankle), LB Ivan Pace Jr. (quad, ankle) and LB Dallas Turner (knee) did not practice on Friday, Sept. 20, and have been ruled out for Week 3 versus the Houston Texans. WR Justin Jefferson (quad), OT Brian O'Neill (elbow), LB Andrew Van Ginkel (foot), C Garrett Bradbury (knee), RB Aaron Jones (hip), OG Ed Ingram (tricep) and WR Jalen Nailor (ankle) practiced in full on Friday and have been removed from the injury report.

Minnesota Vikings WR Justin Jefferson (quad) was upgraded to a full practice on Friday, Sept. 20, and no longer appears on the injury report for Week 3 versus the Houston Texans.
Huddle Up: Not as if there was any question about Jefferson being the alpha in this offense, but the absence of Jordan Addison (knee) for a second straight week should free Jefferson up for double-digit targets in a game that could shoot out. As is usually the case, Jefferson is a threat to post overall WR1 numbers this week.
