The records for star wide receiver Justin Jefferson just keep coming and coming.
After setting numerous records throughout the first half of this season, he set another one on Thursday night. With his 37-yard reception in the second quarter, Jefferson set the NFL record for most receiving yards in the first three seasons of a career, passing Vikings legend and Pro Football Hall of Famer Randy Moss.

Anytime you break a record held by Randy Moss, it’s an incredibly impressive feat. Through 44 games, Jefferson now has 4,186 yards and has been the catalyst for the success of the Vikings over the last three years.
This will be far from the last record Jefferson breaks and we are here for all of them.
