Justin Jefferson Fantasy

Minnesota Vikings rookie wide receiver Justin Jefferson will look to build off his NFL debut in Week 2 against the Colts. Jefferson caught two passes for 26 yards against the Packers and was slotted in the Vikings offense as the third receiver. The Colts allowed three touchdown passes to receivers in Week 1, but Jefferson is still learning the ropes offensively. Jefferson has plenty of talent and could have fantasy value at some point this season, but for now, he should ride the fantasy bench in Week 2 in standard-size leagues.

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Justin Jefferson caught two passes for 26 yards in his NFL debut against the Packers in Week 1. The highly-touted draft pick was targeted three times and was out-snapped by teammate Bisi Johnson. The Vikings think the world of Jefferson but it is clear he has to earn his way to more playing time. Jefferson's fantasy value exists only in dynasty leagues heading into Week 2.

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Justin Jefferson is listed as third on the wide receiver depth chart heading into the team's Week 1 matchup against the Packers. Jefferson was selected in the first round of the 2020 draft, but for now, he has been supplanted as a starter by teammate Bisi Johnson. Jefferson will carry plenty of fantasy value this year, especially in keeper leagues, but he may not be starter-worthy for at least a few games. The Vikings passing game has a tough matchup in Week 1, as quarterback Kirk Cousins struggled mightily against the Packers last season.
