Mike Sainristil

Jefferson has now totaled 15 combined receiving yards over the last two weeks. The Vikings' WR1 failed to make an impact in what was undoubtedly the best game of J.J. McCarthy's young career, and would have gone without a catch were it not for two receptions on the Vikings' second drive of the game. Jefferson did see a deep target in the end zone that was broken up by Commanders cornerback Mike Sainristil, but that was the closest he came to avoiding back-to-back dud weeks. Talent alone will keep Jefferson in the top-24 mix for Week 15's game against the Cowboys, but it's impossible to ignore this disappointing stretch.
