Unclear if Vikings open window for WR Justin Jefferson

Vikings receiver Justin Jefferson is eligible to come off of injured reserve this week.

But as of Monday, it’s unclear whether or not Minnesota will open his 21-day practice window.

Fantasy Impact: 

Head coach Kevin O’Connell told reporters during his press conference that the club is still working through the options with Jefferson. The story went on to quote him as saying: “We’re going to do what’s best for Justin, and make sure when he does return, he can be the Justin Jefferson we all know and can expect to see,” O’Connell said, via Ben Goessling of the Minnesota Star Tribune. The good news for the Vikings and Jefferson fantasy owners is the team has climbed to 5-4 on the season, and with Joshua Dobbs at QB the team should continue to at least remain in the playoff hunt. That should mean the team will get Jefferson on the field again when the time is right.
