Former Michigan State wide receiver Jalen Nailor is off to a great start this year for the Minnesota Vikings.
Nailor found the endzone again this week, scoring on a four-yard reception in a matchup between the Vikings and Houston Texans. Vikings quarterback Sam Darnold found Nailor in the endzone to push the Vikings’ lead to 21-0 in the third quarter.
Nailor’s touchdown on Sunday vs. the Texans was his third of the season. Nailor is in his third season in the NFL and he had only one career touchdown in his first two seasons in the league.
Nailor starred for the Spartans from 2018 to 2021 where he recorded 86 career receptions for 1,453 yards and 12 touchdowns. He was drafted in the sixth round of the 2022 NFL Draft by the Vikings.
