Vikings wide receiver Justin Jefferson was a full participant in Thursday’s practice, a major boost for the team after he was limited in Wednesday’s session due to an ankle injury.
Jefferson’s Impact Back in Full Force
This full participation is massive, especially with the Vikings coming off their bye week, which clearly gave Jefferson that crucial extra time to heal up. We all saw his impact in Week 5 when he hauled in six catches for 79 yards and a touchdown. Getting him back at full capacity is exactly what this offense needs.
A Healthy Roster Ready to Roll
It wasn’t just Jefferson feeling better, either. Offensive tackle Brian O’Neill, who was dealing with a knee issue, and cornerback James Pierre, with a foot injury, both moved to full participation Thursday after being limited the day before. Even wide receiver Jordan Addison, who had been dealing with a hamstring, was a full participant. In fact, every other player on the roster had full participation, showing a team getting incredibly healthy at the right time.
This roster-wide health, spearheaded by Jefferson’s return to full practice, is huge for the Vikings as they push forward in their season.
