The Minnesota Vikings have been without both Jordan Addison and T.J. Hockenson for the majority of the first three games. Without them, Justin Jefferson and Jalen Nailor have stepped up in a major way.
They became the first duo in franchise history to record a touchdown in each of the first three games of the regular season. That is a feat that the duo of Randy Moss and Cris Carter could never accomplish.
It's also the first time that it's been accomplished since 2018 when Mike Evans and Chris Godwin accomplished it with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. That is pretty good company, as they have been two of the better receivers in the National Football League over the last six seasons.
Jefferson and Nailor have attacked every level of the defenses they have faced so far this season, including Jefferson's 97-yard touchdown catch against the San Francisco 49ers. The best part about their success is that more is coming. Not having both Addison and Hockenson hasn't been the easiest for the Vikings, but the success they've had thus far will only make things easier moving forward.
Things are looking better and better for the Vikings.
