Justin Jefferson Leaves Game with Ankle Injury, Questionable to Return for VikingsNext

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Justin Jefferson suffered an ankle injury during their NFL game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. He left the field late in the first quarter and was treated in the medical tent before being ruled questionable to return. The exact moment and severity of the injury remain unclear, though a video shared by an NFL injury specialist shows Jefferson forcing his ankle on the ground. Jefferson had recorded two catches for 32 yards before exiting the game.
