From the article

Jefferson scored only 8.4 points in Sunday's win over the Colts, his third game this season with less than 10. Jefferson has yet to see double-digit targets in a game this season, too, and the Vikings' passing offense with Kyler Murray has yet to establish a consistent rhythm. Now, Jefferson does get some very positive matchups over the next two weeks (@DET, BUF), which will keep him in the WR1 range, but I understand if managers are concerned about the league's best route runner and his lack of production.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalProjection

Jefferson's 8.4-point game and zero double-digit target games raise consistency concerns.

Jefferson scored only 8.4 points in Week 7's win over the Colts, his third game this season with less than 10 points. He has yet to see double-digit targets in a game this season, and the Vikings' passing offense with Kyler Murray has yet to establish a consistent rhythm. Though he gets some very positive matchups over the next two weeks (@DET, BUF), which will keep him in the WR1 range, managers should be concerned about the league's best route runner and his lack of production.
