Vikings' Justin Jefferson (hamstring) progressing, unsure on return

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Justin Jefferson (hamstring) said he wants to be 100 percent before returning to game action.

What It Means:

Jefferson returned to practice on Wednesday in a limited fashion, but he's not expected to play in Sunday's game against the New Orleans Saints. “They want me 100 percent as I do as well,” Jefferson said. “I don’t want to go out there 80, 90 percent and have the chance of hurting it again. It’s just day-to-day and when that time comes I’ll definitely be ready to step out on that field.” KJ Osborn (concussion) may also miss Sunday's game, so Jordan Addison and T.J. Hockenson (ribs) could have their hands full.

The Saints are allowing the 11th-fewest FanDuel points per game to wide receivers this season and they have the fourth-best pass defense in the league, according to numberFire's opponent-adjusted model. Hockenson led the Vikings with 12 targets and Addison was second (7) in Week 9 against the Atlanta Falcons.
