For the first time in his NFL career, Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Justin Jefferson was nowhere to be found when it came time for reporters to speak to players after the team's embarrassing loss to the Seattle Seahawks last Sunday.
After how poorly the Vikings performed in Seattle, though, no one should blame Jefferson for his actions after the contest. His silence was received loud and clear by Minnesota's locker room and fan base, and it possibly opened some eyes on the team's coaching staff.
On Thursday, during his normal weekly chat with the local Twin Cities media, Jefferson explained why he decided to bolt for the team bus after the Seahawks loss instead of sticking around to say something he might've regretted.
