Justin Jefferson expects to play for Vikings; Tyreek Hill questionable vs. Jets

Justin Jefferson is ready to play Saturday against the Cincinnati Bengals after suffering a chest injury in Week 14. The Minnesota Vikings wide receiver said he was going to run his typical number of routes after he was cleared of internal bleeding and broken ribs after being injured on a hit against the Las Vegas Raiders.

“He did probably more than I originally expected and responded really well to all the work,” Vikings head coach Kevin O’Connell said. “So we feel really good about where Justin’s at.”

Tyreek Hill’s ankle injury suffered during Monday night’s loss to the Tennessee Titans is still lingering. The Miami Dolphins wide receiver missed his third straight practice on Friday, but head coach Mike McDaniel said that isn’t anything to read into.

“Bottom line is we’ll have a conversation that will be based on — remember, this is Tyreek Hill’s career,” McDaniel said. “He’s a very experienced player. I handle very experienced players different than I handle younger guys, because they know what they signed up for and it’s his career.

“If he’s confident that he can go be himself, and I have the support of the trainers that are responsible to the risk, then he’ll play. If not, then he won’t and literally every hour, for him, is imperative.”

Here’s the rest of the Week 15 injury report.
