Justin Jefferson
WR - Minnesota Vikings - Questionable
Availability
Expert Note
View More NotesJustin Jefferson caught a 97-yard touchdown pass from Sam Darnold, which facilitated a WR7 overall finish for the week. Jefferson's health is unclear heading into his Week 3 matchup with the Houston Texans. He is currently questionable due to a calf injury, though he did take part in a walkthrough practice on Wednesday. Assuming no setbacks, fantasy managers should slot Jefferson into his normal WR1 slot in this game. Houston allowed three receptions of 50 yards or longer in Week 1 against the Indianapolis Colts. They did a much better job keeping things in front of them last week. However, it was also the second career start for Caleb Williams. Jefferson may be a bit more volatile this week than usual, but should still be started in all formats.

Fantasy Impact
Jefferson was able to practice for a second-straight day on Thursday, but he was once again limited. He and the team are making an active effort to play it safe with his recovery, so this shouldn't come as much of a surprise to fantasy managers. It looks like he's trending towards playing in Week 3, but we won't know more about his official status until after Friday's practice.
