Justin Jefferson Feeling Better But Unsure Of Week 12 Status

Justin Jefferson Feeling Better But Unsure Of Week 12 Status

12 months ago

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Justin Jefferson (hamstring) said his hamstring recovery is going well and that he has reached top speeds during practice, but he's not ready to say if he thinks he can play on Monday night in Week 12 against the Chicago Bears. "If I'm feeling good, I will play," Jefferson said. The All-Pro wideout isn't expected to be activated from Injured Reserve to play this week, but nothing is official yet and we won't know for sure until Saturday at the deadline to activate players from IR. The 24-year-old was listed as limited again on Thursday for the team's first official practice of the week. If Jefferson is activated on Saturday, it means he should play and should be returned to all starting fantasy lineups. Jefferson said he will not return until he's 100 percent. If he misses another game, rookie first-rounder Jordan Addison will operate as the top receiver yet again. UPDATE: Jefferson was limited again in practice Friday.
