News: 5 days agoJefferson brought in six of eight targets for 81 yards in Sunday's 23-13 win over the Titans.

Spin: Jefferson led the Vikings in all receiving categories as he usually does, but he was left scoreless after both of Sam Darnold's passing touchdowns went to a pair of running backs. It was still a solid fantasy effort from Jefferson, who now has 59 receptions for 912 yards and five touchdowns through 10 contests. The superstar wideout is a clear-cut WR1 for Week 12 when Minnesota visits Chicago next Sunday.

ESPN Fantasy Projection: Jefferson enters his fifth season with the Vikings after missing significant time due to injury for the first time in his career last season. In his eight healthy games, Jefferson averaged 24 fantasy points per game and was one of only four wide receivers to have at least six games with 23 fantasy points in 2023. In a season where the Vikings started Kirk Cousins, Nick Mullens, Joshua Dobbs and Jaren Hall, Jefferson proved himself QB-proof. This season he'll have Sam Darnold under center. While there could be some growing pains in this offense, Jefferson is one of the few WRs that can make magic happen with subpar QB play. He is once again a top-five fantasy wide receiver.
