Vikings’ newest injury mystery could raise real Week 1 concerns

Through Minnesota Vikings training camp, one injury has taken precedence over any and all others. Wide receiver Justin Jefferson suffered what was tabbed as a minor injury to his left hamstring on the second day of camp, and he remained out for more than three weeks before returning to practice on Monday.

During training camp and the preseason, caution is the word with any injury to any key player. Most starters will play very little (if at all) in preseason games anyway, and to a certain point, camp practice gets monotonous and not beneficial to getting ready for the season.
