Minnesota Vikings star Justin Jefferson doesn't stack up with former LSU teammate Ja'Marr Chase in one key area in the eyes of one NFC personnel director.
"Ja'Marr is faster and stronger and can do more with the ball in his hands," the team official said to ESPN's Jeremy Fowler. "Jefferson is an elite route-runner and is relentless, but he's missing that elite physical trait that Chase has. You're not scared of him taking the top off your defense, even if he's going to get 11 for 150 on you."
Chase ran a 4.34-second 40-yard dash at the 2021 NFL Scouting Combine and averaged 18.
