- Oct 21 Will Ragatz (X) Justin Jefferson, always a great leader, on Jauan Jennings' slow start and frustration: "Jauan has been doing great for us. Everybody sees what he does in the blocking game. They don't really see the amount of routes he's getting open on and the different plays that he could be making. It's just not getting to his hands at this point in time. Which is OK. It's fine. Obviously he's gonna be frustrated because he wants that ball and he feels like he's worked that route or that moment to get the ball and create that separation. That's every player, every guy that wants to have a big moment and a big role in a game. The ball is just not finding him at this moment, but it will. And once it will, we're gonna see Jauan smiling on that sideline, and everybody's gonna be pumped up to see him in the end zone or to see him have that big play."

On Justin Jefferson being ruled out this week:
1) Makes sense to be cautious. Vikings can beat the Dolphins without him.
2) It's sneakily important that they knew about Jefferson's absence ahead of time and have spent this week game-planning to play without him, unlike last week when he exited early.
3) He's going to be pushing super hard to play next week in New Orleans. Only NFL game he's played in his home state was during 2020 COVID season with barely any fans in attendance. 2022 game was in London.
