In what is quickly becoming one of the best seasons we’ve ever seen from not just a rookie wide receiver, but a receiver period, Minnesota Vikings phenom Justin Jefferson just surpassed the de facto GOAT rookie season in team/league history in one major statistical category.
Justin Jefferson surpassed Randy Moss’ rookie team record of 69 grabs during the third quarter of today’s game against the Bears.

The Vikings will need a few more grabs from Jefferson if the Vikings hope to keep their season alive, as they trail the Bears by 10 as of the writing of this piece.
