Justin Jefferson Fantasy Football Outlook (2025)

By Derek Brown (FantasyPros), Tue, Jun 3rd 2025, 7:39pm EDT

Jefferson has been the model of consistency. He has never finished lower than WR9 in fantasy points per game since his rookie season, and he's been inside the top five in this category in each of the last four seasons. With Sam Darnold at the helm last year, Jefferson was the WR3 in fantasy points per game as he ranked third in target share, fourth in raw target volume, fifth in red zone targets, and second in receiving yards per game. Jefferson also excelled on a per-route basis, ranking sixth in yards per route run and 18th in first downs per route run (per Fantasy Points Data). Jefferson still has WR1 overall upside this season if J.J. McCarthy can prove to be an upgrade over Sam Darnold for the Vikings in 2025.
