Every year, there are around four to five players who receive the 99 ranking, and Jefferson is certainly deserving of that. He had a league-high 128 receptions for 1,809 yards while also hauling in seven touchdown passes.
He was dominant in multiple facets of the game, taking advantage of cornerbacks and safeties alike. He won best play at the NFL Honors and the ESPYs for this catch against the Buffalo Bills:
Jefferson went to social media talking about how he used to create himself as a 99 in “Madden,” and now he doesn’t have to do that anymore.
It’s a really cool moment for the best wide receiver in the National Football League
Y’all have no idea what it means to be a 99 in Madden!! Since I was 7y/o I been creating my own player making him a 99 and now I don’t have to🤯🤯
