Cris Carter jokes he 'threatened' Justin Jefferson over Vikings QB talk
Carter advised Jefferson to "keep his mouth shut" amid the Vikings' QB turmoil last year.
Vikings legend Cris Carter joked that he threatened current star wide receiver Justin Jefferson during discussions about the team's quarterback controversy last season. On the Up & Adams Show with Kay Adams, Carter said, "Don’t mention the quarterback, unless you can say good things about him. It’s only going to help you." Despite being a Hall of Famer, Carter's delivery style can come across as questionable.
He emphasized that Jefferson has consistently remained positive throughout his career, never publicly complaining or criticizing any quarterbacks during his time with the Vikings, including the historic 2025 season.
