News summary

Minnesota Vikings' star receiver Justin Jefferson exited the game against the San Francisco 49ers with a bruised right quadriceps but reassured fans that he does not expect to miss any games. Jefferson described the injury as a 'quad contusion' sustained during a collision with linebacker Fred Warner, and emphasized, 'I'm not seriously injured.' He had a standout performance prior to the injury, recording 133 yards and a 97-yard touchdown. Head coach Kevin O'Connell confirmed that Jefferson would be day-to-day, but he is optimistic about his readiness for next week’s game against the Houston Texans. This follows a challenging previous season where Jefferson missed several games due to a hamstring injury. The Vikings are relieved as they rely on Jefferson's performance amid other injury concerns on the team.
