Jefferson drops to 3/55 after strong debut; volume concerns with QB change.

After a strong Week 1 debut with an 8/92/2 split against Green Bay, Jefferson fell back to Earth in Week 2, catching just three passes on six targets for 55 yards against Chicago. The source notes 'it was frustrating to see Minnesota shy away from force-feeding their best player' despite horrible weather conditions. With Kyler Murray continuing through concussion protocol, his 'YOLO-ball attitude will work in Jefferson's favor at times, but the volume will be less than when Carson Wentz is taking snaps.' Minnesota faces two winless opponents in Tampa Bay and Miami before facing New Orleans in Week 5, and the source looks for 'a bounce-back effort.'
