Held in check again Jefferson recorded three receptions on six targets for 14 yards in Sunday's 28-24 win over the Lions.
Impact Kirk Cousins distributed targets evenly among Adam Thielen, KJ Osborn and Jefferson, which was one reason for Jefferson's modest production. He was also unable to deliver explosive plays however, as his longest gain went for only six yards and he averaged only 2.3 yards per target. After a huge performance in Week 1, Jefferson has just nine receptions for 64 yards combined between his last two games.

Modest yardage total in loss Jefferson secured six of 12 targets for 48 yards in the Vikings' 24-7 loss to the Eagles on Monday night.
Impact Jefferson once again paced the Vikings in targets and receptions while checking in a close second behind Adam Thielen's 52 yards for the lead in that category. The star wideout, like quarterback Kirk Cousins, saw a significant drop-off from his Week 1 numbers, but the fact he continued to be targeted at such a robust rate should be of comfort for fantasy managers. Another reason for optimism lies in a Week 3 NFC North home matchup against the Lions, which have allowed 580 yards passing to Jalen Hurts and Carson Wentz during their first two games.
