STACKED’s take
Jefferson's ankle injury and reduced targets amid Vikings' run-heavy, clock-control scheme.
Justin Jefferson left Week 3 with an ankle injury and missed Week 4. Beyond the injury, Jefferson expressed an 'in-between feeling' about the Vikings' 6-0 start, saying he would love winning games over production but wants to show he is the best player in the league with elite production. Coach Kevin O'Connell acknowledged the drop in Jefferson's production, noting the Vikings are leading the league or close to it in rushing attempts on early downs, which reduces passing volume: 'In the past we were throwing the ball a thousand times... there may not be just the amount of volume [of throws].' O'Connell emphasized Jefferson is their best player and they must find ways to activate him.
