Justin Jefferson: Justin Jefferson A Must-Start Against Eagles

Wide receiver Justin Jefferson of the Minnesota Vikings should once again be glued into starting lineups when his team takes on a Philadelphia Eagles team that has uncharacteristically struggled in 2025. The Eagles, who infamously passed on Jefferson to select Jalen Reagor, haven't been nearly as dominant as they were in their run to a Super Bowl last season. Philly is allowing points on more than 43% of opposing drives, which ranks 26th, and also ranks in the bottom 10 of average depth of target (29th), pressure percentage (27th), and sacks (25th). With Minnesota set to start backup quarterback Carson Wentz for at least one more week, getting the ball to Jefferson, who had 22 targets in the past two games, should be a priority again.
