Justin Jefferson says he'' be patient with Vikings offense, told Odell Beckham Jr. not to go to Packers

Receiver Justin Jefferson started last week's loss in Baltimore with an 11-yard run and a 50-yard touchdown catch on the opening drive, but those two plays would account for half of his touches as the offense sputtered against the Ravens.

Coordinator Klint Kubiak said Thursday that coaches have to "be more conscious" of funneling the ball to their best players, days after Jefferson and receiver Adam Thielen combined for five catches for 75 yards and a touchdown in a 34-31 overtime loss in Baltimore.

"You don't want to come out of a game and Justin has those kind of targets," Kubiak said.
