Minnesota Vikings wide receiver has a mild hamstring strain and will be held out of practice. Head coach Kevin O’Connell said they avoided something serious with Jefferson but the team will be very cautious with him.

O’Connell also stated that he has no questions about Jefferson’s availability for week one. The Vikings are already bracing for a Jordan Addison suspension so they’ll be extra careful with Jefferson.

Jefferson is a consensus first round pick and one of the best wide receivers in the league so don’t expect this news to change that but the situation should be monitored going forward.
