Justin Jefferson caught 4-of-7 targets for 44 yards in the Vikings’ Week 7 win over the Colts. 2026-10-25 17:00:02 Jefferson led the Vikings in targets and yards on a low-volume day for the passing game. He hit a career milestone, crossing 600 career catches with a four-catch day. The Vikings’ offense continues to post low-efficiency outings as the defense lifts the team to an undefeated record. Jefferson is still the No. 1 wide receiver but banks on high volume usage and touchdowns to be a fantasy WR1. A lack of touchdown opportunities and red zone usage will be an issue in the Vikings offense, but Jefferson has a soft matchup against the Lions for Week 8. He should be back in the WR1 rankings next week. |

Justin Jefferson (ankle) is not on the final injury report and will play in Week 7 against the Colts. 2026-10-23 15:00:02 Coming off the Vikings’ Week 6 bye, Jefferson got in a limited session on Wednesday before returning to full participation on Thursday. The star wide receiver posted a 6/79/1 receiving line in the Vikings’ Week 5 win over the Saints. He should be treated as an elite WR1 against a Colts pass defense that will be without CB Sauce Gardner (calf). |

He should be feeling even better at this point, coming off a Week 6 bye. The Colts will notably be without No. 1 cornerback Sauce Gardner (calf) this weekend, making life even easier on Jefferson. |

The unit will likely be without No. 1 CB Sauce Gardner (calf), further enhancing Jefferson’s WR1 outlook for Week 7. |

Justin Jefferson caught 6-of-7 targets for 79 yards and a touchdown in the Vikings’ Week 5 win over the Saints. 2026-10-11 17:00:02 Jefferson didn’t miss a beat after returning from a one-game absence due to an ankle injury. He made several spectacular grabs in this game, the most amazing of which was a toe-tapping catch in the back of the end zone with three defenders covering him. Even at less than full strength, Jefferson is simply one of the best receivers in the league. He will remain near the top of the WR1 ranks when the Vikings face the Colts after their bye week. |
