News: 1 day agoJefferson (ankle) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game at New Orleans.

Spin: The same can be said for fellow WR Jordan Addison (hamstring). Jefferson himself is looking to miss just one game due to an ankle injury that he picked up in a Week 3 win at Tampa Bay, and his status will be confirmed, one way or another, about 90 minutes before Sunday's 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff.

ESPN Fantasy Projection: After finishing in the top 10 among receivers in fantasy PPG during each of his first five seasons, Jefferson plummeted to 30th in 2025. The fall was, of course, unrelated to Jefferson's ability, as the team's quarterback woes limited the star receiver to career-low showings in yardage (1,048), touchdowns (two), catch rate (60%) and yards per target (7.4). Jefferson's fall came despite him seeing a career-high 30.1% target share and ranking in the top six at the position in targets (141) and end zone targets (15). The 27-year-old remains an elite player, but the quarterback concerns aren't fully solved, with dual-threat Kyler Murray (one receiver managed a top-25 fantasy campaign during his time as a starter in Arizona) set to work as the starter. Perhaps Murray can ignite Jefferson similar to how he did DeAndre Hopkins at times, but there's certainly some risk. Jefferson is best considered as a mid-range WR1.
