Jefferson has to pick up where Diggs left off
Minnesota traded its leading receiver from 2019: Stefon Diggs.
Granted Adam Thielen was the leading receiver from 2016-18, and he’s still on the team. However, the Vikings have been reliant on the one-two punch of Diggs and Thielen in the passing game, and Minnesota will hope that Justin Jefferson replaces at least a majority of Diggs’ production.
I think it’s unfair to say that Jefferson will 100% replace a player of Diggs’ caliber, but I don’t think him having a good year where he gets at least 900 yards or so is out of the question.
