The Facts: Jefferson already established himself as one of the NFL's best wide receivers after just two seasons in the league. The Minnesota Vikings star said it won't be long before he's considered the very best at his position. Jefferson praised Davante Adams as the NFL's best receiver during a recent interview with Complex but added that he's "pretty sure after this year, it's going to be me."
Diehards Line:
Jefferson, 23, has enjoyed a record-breaking start to his NFL career. He finished with a rookie-record 1,400 receiving yards in 2020 -- a mark surpassed last season by former LSU teammate Ja'Marr Chase (1,455) -- and his 3,016 career receiving yards are the most in league history for any player in his first two seasons. Despite the accolades, Jefferson told Complex he is "always working on my game" and said he is "excited" to play in first-year head coach Kevin O'Connell's offense. Jefferson had 108 receptions last season for 1,616 yards -- the second most in the NFL behind only Rams star Cooper Kupp (1,947) and ahead of Adams (1,553), who was traded by the Packers to the Raiders earlier this offseason. Jefferson said one more season of similar production will cement his status as the league's best. "I think I have to do it three years in a row for everybody to believe so," he said. ... It's not hard to find fantay managers who think he's already there.
