        Justin Jefferson Still Not Practicing On Wednesday

        Justin Jefferson, who has missed the last two weeks with a hamstring injury, is still not practicing, according to ESPN’s Kevin Seifert.

        What They're Saying

        Seifert: “TJ Hockenson (hip/leg) will practice today, per Kevin O’Connell. Still no Justin Jefferson (hamstring).”

        2025 Fantasy Football Impact

        A mild hamstring strain has kept Jefferson sidelined, and as Seifert points out, the All-Pro WR still isn’t quite ready to return. Minnesota has expressed zero concern regarding Jefferson’s Week 1 availability, though it is entirely possible the Vikings exercise caution and hold him out of the preseason contests.

        With WR Jordan Addison now suspended for the first three games of the season, it becomes even more important to have Jefferson healthy to open the year. In two games with Addison sidelined last year, Jefferson averaged nearly 22 PPR points, while drawing a target on 30% of his routes. 

        There’s no cause for concern yet, but ideally, Jefferson returns to practice in some capacity by next week.
