The Vikings take care of Justin Jefferson for a slight distension in the Corva – Chicago Tribune tendon
Eagan, Minnesota, United States (AP)-The Vikings of Minnesota will keep the Jefferson open receiver off the field for a while due to a slight distension in their left hamstrings.
Coach Kevin O’Connell said before training on Friday that Jefferson would be reassessed next week. The two times All-Pro, which has the greatest number of yards by reception in the history of the NFL during the first five years of a player, felt a stiffness in his leg during the team session on Thursday and shortcut his participation as a precaution. The Vikings sent him to make a magnetic resonance later.
O’Connell described the injury as “very light” and said that he was not afraid that Jefferson was ready for the season’s opening match in Chicago on September 8, which is in more than six weeks. Even thus, given its value for equipment, the type of injury and the requirements of its position, Jefferson should lose more than a few days of camping practices.
Jefferson underwent an important distension in his right ischiobial in 2023 which made him miss seven games.
