Vikings’ Justin Jefferson on hot mic moment calling out Kirk Cousins: ‘I ain’t no diva’

The rookie took to Twitter to respond.

Minnesota Vikings rookie Justin Jefferson has had quite a connection with Kirk Cousins this season — the wideout has 73 catches, 1,182 receiving yards and seven touchdowns through Week 15.

Their connection is very much there, but on Sunday, a FOX hot mic picked up Jefferson appearing to say, “[Expletive] Kirk. Come on, throw the ball.”

As my colleague Steven Ruiz noted, no big deal. It probably happens a lot and we don’t hear it. And given how productive Jefferson has been, I would think he’s not mad at Cousins all the time.

That was basically what Jefferson said on Twitter after the loss to the Chicago Bears: “I ain’t no diva don’t get it twisted.”

Here’s the moment caught on a mic (WARNING: Some NSFW language is in there):
