Justin Jefferson Fantasy Football Outlook (ROS)

By Andrew Erickson (FantasyPros), Mon, Dec 1st 2025, 9:54pm EST

Justin Jefferson hit rock bottom with Brosmer. Just two catches for four yards (20% target share and 51 incomplete air yards). T.J. Hockenson actually saw a boost (6-for-6 and 59 yards) while Jordan Addison was the target leader (10). I guess Hockenson could be a viable streamer versus the Commanders if we get Brosmer for another week.
Jefferson has to fall in the rankings closer to the WR2 range. Zero top-8 finishes this season. Zero 20-point games. The "upside" has not been there for Jefferson this season.
But it's all about Week 14 onward:
• QBs: No.1
• RBs: Average
• WRs: No.1
The hope is that with JJ McCarthy returning from concussion protocol, the Vikings' offensive weapons can take advantage of matchups versus the Commanders, Giants, Bears, and Cowboys - while being easy bench candidates in tougher spots (like the last 2 games).
McCarthy is expected to return in Week 14 and start against the Commanders.
