PFF grades for 2023 season confirm Justin Jefferson’s dominance

According to PFF, the Minnesota Vikings’ Justin Jefferson is the only WR to achieve a 90+ grade each of the last 4 years.

Justin Jefferson has been one of the most dominant wide receivers in the league since the Minnesota Vikings selected him with the 22nd pick in the 2022 NFL draft. The latest data from Pro Football Focus are a reminder of Jefferson’s greatness.

According to PFF, Jefferson is the only wide receiver to have a grade of 90 or above in each of the last four seasons. Even this past season, when Jefferson was fighting through an ankle injury and the loss of his starting quarterback, Kirk Cousins, Jefferson put up a PFF grade of 91.1.

That grade, remarkably, is the highest of his career up to this point. While statistically 2023 wasn’t the best for Jefferson, he was clearly playing at an elite level under some exceptional circumstances. Imagine how much higher that grade could have been without the injuries to himself and Cousins.

Vikings offensive PFF grades in 30-20 loss vs. Lions

PFF thought the Vikings offense played relatively well on Sunday’s regular season finale

The regular season is now over for the Minnesota Vikings. They finished with a 7-10 record after a 30-20 loss to the Detroit Lions ended their chances of making the playoffs.

The game went about as well as anyone could have predicted. The Lions’ offense could move with relative ease on a Vikings’ defense that was devastated with injuries. They scored four touchdowns en route to beating the Vikings.

The offense wasn’t too bad. They outgained the Lions by 67 yards but two turnovers and untimely penalties put them behind the eight-ball consistently

The Pro Football Focus grades are out and the offense graded relatively well considering a 10-point loss.
