MINNEAPOLIS — Justin Jefferson took a scenic route to the end zone in Minnesota’s 23-17 victory.
Now he’s hoping for a short trip down the road to recovery after suffering a quadriceps bruise late in the third quarter that sidelined him for the rest of the game.
“I’m feeling good. We played tremendous ball all-in-all,” Jefferson said after the game. “At the end of the day, all that matters is winning, and I’m not seriously injured. That’s the main, important thing, so it’s all about getting to the training room, making sure my body is right for next week.”
Minnesota improved to 2-0 and will host the Houston Texans in Week 3.
