Vikings call WR Justin Jefferson (hamstring) questionable for MNF

Vikings star receiver Justin Jefferson has not played since Oct. 8 when he injured his right hamstring in a game against the Chiefs.

He has practiced the past two weeks on a limited basis but was questionable for the past two games and didn’t play.

Vikings coach Kevin O’Connell said Jefferson is considered questionable for Monday Night Football, too.

Fantasy Impact: 

O'Connell went on to say Jefferson had a really good week last week and the extra day could work in Jefferson's favor as well. As the story went on to say, the Vikings want to “be smart” with the soft-tissue injury, something Jefferson himself said he would do. Jefferson noted that hamstring injuries can linger and come back, so he won’t push to return until the leg is fully healed, the story went on to say. The uncertainty and the game being on Monday night won't help owners who would love to get Jefferson back in fantasy lineups. The best plan would to play Jefferson in your flex spot and try to have a capable replacement ready to go if Jefferson is out again. Adam Schefter has mentioned a logical return for Jefferson could be after the team's Week 14 bye.
