Justin Jefferson joined elite company once again with yet another record-setting season.
With two catches for 37 yards in the first half against the Detroit Lions, Jefferson became the fifth player in NFL history with three seasons of at least 100 receptions and 1,500 yards. That group includes Hall of Famers Andre Johnson and Marvin Harrison and potential Hall of Fame receivers Julio Jones and Antonio Brown.
Jefferson will have plenty of time to continue building on this. He will be 26 when the 2025 season begins and has plenty of football ahead of him. And as long as Kevin O’Connell is calling plays, the offense will continue to run through Jefferson.
If he keeps breaking records and plays for several more seasons at this level, Jefferson will join the receivers mentioned above in the Hall of Fame. Right now, he’s hoping to help the Vikings navigate the playoffs and try returning to the Super Bowl for the first time since the 1976 season.
