MINNEAPOLIS -- The cleats Minnesota Vikings receiver Justin Jefferson wore in his final outing as a rookie paid homage to the Hall of Famer whose long-standing franchise records he topped in the last three games of 2020.
Trying to wrap his head around the 1,400-yard receiving mark he reached in Week 17, surpassing the team rookie record of 1,313 yards set by Randy Moss in 1998, Jefferson threw out a request. He wanted Moss' signature on the cleats so they could be displayed among his prized football possessions.
Weeks later when they met virtually ahead of the Pro Bowl, Moss gladly obliged.
