Justin Jefferson 2025 NFL Redraft Outlook

Year after year it seems like Justin Jefferson reaches the top of wide receiver production. In the five seasons that he’s been in the league, he’s either finished WR1 (like in 2022) or close to there.

That being said, the former LSU Tiger will have to deal with a lot of change in Minnesota. They’re hoping to get a full year out of quarterback J.J. McCarthy, so will that affect Jefferson’s numbers?

Jefferson probably doesn’t receive enough credit for adapting to a new system last year and still performing well. He had Sam Darnold throwing him the football, a quarterback almost nobody had faith in.

Nevertheless, the Darnold to Jefferson connection was real, and it led to five games where Jefferson had over 100 yards. The only category where Jefferson was slightly lacking in was touchdowns; he had only ten on the season, and there was a six-game stretch where he didn’t reach the endzone at all.

In terms of fantasy, Jefferson averaged 18 points per week, which is as good as any fantasy player could ask for. There were a few duds in the season for Jefferson, like Week 12 against Chicago where he only had 4.7 points. Those were only occasionally, though.

What’s most impressive about his season was that he was still scoring points through that six-game stretch without a touchdown. He had 19.6 points against the Rams and 21.5 points against the Colts without entering the endzone.
