Justin Jefferson Fantasy

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Justin Jefferson will finish up his fantastic rookie season against a porous Lions secondary in Week 17. The rookie receiver has exploded on the scene this season and heads into the final week with 79 receptions for 1,267 yards and seven touchdowns. Jefferson is averaging a fantastic 16.0 yards per catch and will face a Lions Defense that is allowing the sixth most fantasy points to opposing receivers. Detroit has surrendered five 100-yard receiving games to individual opponents and 11 touchdowns to receivers over their last six games. With star running back Dalvin Cook out of the mix for Week 17, the Vikings air attack could take flight. Jefferson has WR1 upside in the final week of the season.

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Justin Jefferson caught six passes for 85 yards but left the field on the final drive in the Vikings 52-33 loss to the Saints in Week 16. Jefferson was holding his foot in pain and limped off the field after a 3rd-and-10 and did not return for the final few plays. The rookie has been fantastic this season, with 81 catches for 1,267 yards and seven touchdowns. Hopefully the injury is minor but with the Vikings' playoff hopes all but dashed and sealed, Jefferson's status may need to be monitored heading into the final game of the season.
