Much to the delight of fantasy football fans, Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Justin Jefferson won't be catching passes from J.J. McCarthy this Sunday. McCarthy is currently in the league's concussion protocol.
Stephen A. Smith is "disgusted with the Minnesota Vikings," he said on ESPN's First Take on Thursday. Why? Smith's take has to do with what the Vikings' offseason quarterback decision has meant for superstar wide receiver Justin Jefferson, whose numbers are worse than they've ever been.
The Vikings will be without quarterback JJ McCarthy, who is still in the concussion protocol, and have a new starter on Sunday.
