Justin Jefferson’s catch of the year looked even more incredible up close

Minnesota Vikings superstar wide receiver Justin Jefferson is the best at his position in the NFL for a reason.

During Thursday night’s away game against the Los Angeles Rams, Jefferson came down with what is easily the catch of the year so far.

In the game’s third quarter, Vikings quarterback Sam Darnold found Jefferson in the red zone for a possible long gain.

The wide receiver bobbled the football with one hand and somehow still came down with it inbounds on the other side of his body despite tight coverage from Rams cornerback Darious Williams.

The close-up look at the play shows just how stunning Jefferson’s catch was and how difficult it was for him to corral it with Williams in coverage.

Jefferson is the best wideout doing it right now, and plays like this just make you marvel at how great he really is.
