Justin Jefferson Primed For Big Performance
1 month agoMinnesota Vikings wide receiver Justin Jefferson could be in store for a massive day this weekend when his team lines up against the Atlanta Falcons. The fifth-year wideout rebounded nicely in Week 13 after putting up a stinker the week prior -- becoming just the fourth player in league history to rack up 1,000-plus yards in each of their first five seasons in the process. It's been an incredible start to his career. Jefferson will look to get back into the end zone this weekend -- something he has yet to do since Week 7 -- and has a strong chance to do so against a Falcons defensive unit that has been abysmal against wide receivers in 2024. Atlanta allows the eighth-most fantasy points per game to wide receivers (37.9), with 15 of their 21 passing scores given up coming to the position. The 25-year-old is RotoBaller's PPR WR3 in this week's rankings.
