On Wednesday, Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Justin Jefferson was voted an All-Pro by the NFL Players Association and Pro Football Focus. Fast forward to Thursday, and Jefferson was named Pro Football Talk’s offensive player of the year for 2022.
These high honors come as no surprise, as Jefferson was a master of his craft on the football field this season and showed week in and week out why he’s the best receiver in football.

Jefferson finished the season leading the league in receptions (128) and yards (1809) along with eight total touchdowns. Jefferson will have a few more opportunities to notch awards this season as fans wait for the Associated Press to name their All-Pro team ass well as the NFL Honors which take place Thursday, February 9th, at 8 p.m. central on NBC. If the Vikings make the Super Bowl, there is a chance that Jefferson earns MVP just like Cooper Kupp did last season.
