Vikings’ Justin Jefferson leaves game at Buccaneers with an ankle injury
Tampa, Fla. (AP) — Wide receiver Justin Jefferson of the Minnesota Vikings exited Sunday's game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in the first quarter due to an ankle injury. Jefferson, a two-time All-Pro, was questionable to return and left the sideline, walking to the locker room mid-second quarter. He had contributed with two catches for 32 yards from the versatile quarterback Kyler Murray, who had returned to action after suffering a concussion in Week 1.
The Buccaneers faced an additional setback as wideout Jalen McMillan was ruled out for the remainder of the game due to a knee injury.
