This is Justin Jefferson at the Detroit Lions. I think in almost every other season he might be fifth on this list. Now it's just a couple spots down but I think that's a pretty big gap. The Vikings are 31st in offensive EPA so far this season. Detroit has allowed a league high 22 passing points per game. They've allowed multiple touchdown passes in every game so far this season. And they are allowing a league high 5.7 plays per game of 20 or more yards.
STACKED’s take
A-tier vs Lions' league-high 22 passing PPG; concerns about Murray's accuracy.
Justin Jefferson faces the Detroit Lions, who allow a league-high 22 passing points per game and 5.7 plays per game of 20+ yards. Detroit has allowed multiple touchdown passes in every game this season and cannot stop the deep pass. Kyler Gordon notes that in almost any other season, Jefferson might rank fifth on the weekly list, but the matchup quality elevates him to A-tier. However, Jefferson is ranked a couple spots lower than he might be in other seasons due to Kyler Murray's accuracy and turnover concerns. The Vikings are 31st in offensive EPA so far this season, and only Cam Ward and Daniel Jones have lower touchdown rates than Murray. Vikings are 3-point road underdogs in dome environment, making this a no-excuses game for Jefferson. Despite offensive issues, Jefferson and Murray have still connected well.
