Justin Jefferson, a former LSU standout and current Minnesota Viking, is in some good company.
With his latest 100-yard game, Jefferson joined fellow ex-Tiger Odell Beckham Jr. and Vikings great Randy Moss as receivers to hit triple digits 19 times in their first 3 NFL seasons.
Justin Jefferson recorded his 19th career game with 100+ receiving yards in Week 9.

Jefferson had 7 catches for 115 yards and a touchdown in Minnesota’s 20-17 win over Washington to improve to 7-1 on the year. Considering how much football is left to be played in 2022, it seems likely Jefferson will set a record for 100-yard games in his first 3 professional seasons.
Minnesota returns to action against the Buffalo Bills on Sunday at 1 p.m. ET. The game will air on FOX.
