Vikings' Justin Jefferson: Highly inefficient sans Murray
Jefferson brought in three of 11 targets for 58 yards in the Vikings' 23-6 loss to the Bills on Monday night.
Jefferson led the Vikings in receiving yards and targets, but the insertion of Carson Wentz at quarterback in place of Kyler Murray (hamstring) led to a very inefficient night for the star receiver. Jefferson's final catch of the night, which went for a 19-yard gain, came on a pass from Max Brosmer, so Jefferson secured just two of the 10 targets that an ineffective Wentz sent his way. Jefferson has been having a generally quiet season even when working with Murray -- he doesn't have any 100-yard games and has posted Monday night's yardage total or less in five of seven games -- but his outlook would be brighter if Murray can return for Sunday's Week 10 road showdown against the Packers.

Vikings' Justin Jefferson: Picturesque TD catch in loss
Jefferson brought in five of nine targets for 33 yards and a touchdown in the Vikings' 19-15 loss to the Lions on Sunday.
Jefferson led the Vikings in receptions with the aid of a team-high target total, but the highlight of the perennial Pro Bowler's afternoon was his touchdown grab. Jefferson stuck his hand up and tapped Kyler Murray's (hamstring) pass to himself while in tight coverage in the left corner of the end zone early in the second quarter, ultimately securing a memorable one-yard scoring grab. Jefferson has topped 50 receiving yards just three times and is still in search of his first 100-yard game of the season, but he's found the end zone in two of the last three games heading into a Week 9 home showdown against the Bills on Monday night, Nov. 9.

Vikings' Justin Jefferson: Modest numbers in Week 7 win
Jefferson caught four of seven targets for 44 yards in Sunday's 16-10 win over the Colts.
The targets and receiving yards actually led the Vikings in a low-scoring defensive battle, but it was T.J. Hockenson on the other end of Kyler Murray's only TD pass. Jefferson is still looking for his first 100-yard performance of the season, and he's been held under 60 yards in three of his five games. The star wideout could be poised to finally break out in Week 8 against the Lions' struggling secondary.

Vikings' Justin Jefferson: Logs full practice Thursday
Jefferson (ankle) practiced in full Thursday, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports.
Jefferson's upgrade from limited Wednesday to uncapped one day later indicates that the ankle injury that has bothered him since the middle of a Week 3 win at Tampa Bay is behind him. He'll be taking on a Colts defense Sunday that has allowed the 10th-most yards per target (8.6) to opposing wide receivers this season.
