Justin Jefferson Player Profile
Justin Jefferson made significant strides in the 2022 season, establishing himself as a dominant force in the NFL. He led the league with 128 receptions, amassing 1,809 yards and scoring nine total touchdowns (eight receiving, one rushing). His outstanding performance earned him the title of Offensive Player of the Year. Notably, he also became a final candidate for the league MVP award.
Recent Achievements
In the 2022 season, Jefferson set multiple records and achieved numerous accolades. He surpassed Randy Moss's record for the most receptions in the first three years of a career. In a game against the Buffalo Bills, he made a one-handed catch that was widely regarded as one of the greatest of all time. This catch was so iconic that his arm sleeves and gloves from the game were displayed in the Pro Football Hall of Fame. Jefferson also earned the NFC Offensive Player of the Month for November.
Early NFL Career
Drafted by the Minnesota Vikings in the first round of the 2020 NFL Draft, Jefferson quickly made a name for himself. In his rookie season, he set the NFL record for most receiving yards (1,400) by a rookie. By the end of the 2021 season, he had accumulated 1,616 receiving yards, making him second-most in the NFL that year. He was named to the Pro Bowl in both his first and second seasons, joining the ranks of Randy Moss and Sammy White as the only three Vikings wide receivers to achieve this feat in their initial two professional seasons.
College Career
Before his professional career, Jefferson played college football at LSU. He was a pivotal player in LSU's victory in the 2020 College Football Playoff National Championship. In his junior season, he led the country with 111 receptions. His 18 receiving touchdowns ranked second in the nation, and his 1,540 receiving yards were the third most. After this successful season, he decided to forgo his senior year and enter the NFL Draft.
Playing Style and Strengths
Justin Jefferson is known for his precise route-running, exceptional hands, and ability to make contested catches. His agility and speed allow him to create separation from defenders, making him a constant deep threat. Jefferson's versatility enables him to line up both outside and in the slot, creating mismatches for opposing defenses. His football IQ and understanding of defensive schemes further enhance his on-field impact.
