Is WR Justin Jefferson Playing in Vikings vs. Patriots Preseason Game?

The Minnesota Vikings are set to face the New England Patriots in their second preseason game on Saturday. The two teams held joint practice sessions on Wednesday and Thursday ahead of the clash at U.S. Bank Stadium.

Superstar wide receiver was sidelined for the Vikings' preseason opener as he is mending the mild hamstring injury he picked up last month. Jefferson expressed some discomfort in his hamstring only days into the training camp, and further evaluation revealed a mild hamstring strain.

Jefferson didn't participate in the joint practice session, but threw some passes to fellow wide receivers.
