Minnesota Vikings head coach Kevin O'Connell said that wide receiver Justin Jefferson did not report on Monday for Day 1 of voluntary workouts. The workouts this spring are voluntary, and Jefferson is angling for a new contract. It was a disappointing year for Jefferson in 2023 due to injury, as he played in a career-low 10 games. However, the three-time Pro Bowler still managed to go over 1,000 yards receiving for the fourth straight season to begin his NFL career, also adding five touchdowns. The 24-year-old remains one of the best wideouts, if not the best, in football when he's healthy. However, contract situation aside, his fantasy value for 2024 is inevitably going to take a hit after quarterback Kirk Cousins left in free agency to play for the Atlanta Falcons.

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver John Hightower made just one catch in Sunday's preseason game against the New Orleans Saints despite leading the team in targets with six. Hightower's one catch was for a 10 yard gain. Hightower has received some hype based on strong practice performances, but he was a non-factor in game action and is deeply buried on the depth chart. He's unlikely to be a fantasy option at all in 2023.
