So far, Vikings rookie wide receiver Justin Jefferson has looked like the real deal.
Jefferson just had back-to-back 100-yard games and on the season he already has 348 receiving yards.
In Daniel Jeremiah’s rookie rankings over at NFL.com, Jefferson ranks fourth, trailing only Joe Burrow, Justin Herbert and Antoine Winfield Jr.
Here’s what Jeremiah wrote about Jefferson:
Jefferson has exploded over the last two weeks, posting 11 catches for 278 yards on 14 targets. He’s a phenomenal route runner and his run-after-catch skills are impressive.
It’s probably not fair to start the Jefferson vs. Stefon Diggs comparisons quite yet, but it doesn’t look like the Vikings will miss much of a beat without Diggs.
