Van Jefferson will once again be the Rams’ No. 3 receiver this season, but he faces some additional challenges as Week 1 approaches. Jefferson has undergone not one, but two offseason surgeries on his knee.
The second procedure wasn’t planned until Jefferson tweaked his knee in practice, requiring minor surgery to fix the issue. The timing of the injury was poor, not only because it brings his Week 1 status into question, but because he was coming off maybe the best practice he’s ever had as a Ram.
