Lon Horwedel-Imagn Images via Reuters Connect The Minnesota Vikings dropped to 6-1 on Sunday after a 19-15 loss to the Detroit Lions at Ford Field, their first loss of the 2026 season. Head coach Kevin O Connell s offense managed just 266 total yards in another anemic performance from Kyler Murray and the pass game. Out of all the players being negatively affected by the ineptitude, nobody is feeling the struggles more than superstar wide receiver Justin Jefferson, even though none of it is really his fault. Again Sunday, JJ got a team-high nine targets, but came away with very little to show for them other than an absolutely insane one-handed touchdown catch that I m not sure any other receiver in the league makes.
