Even though Justin Jefferson needs no introduction to anyone familiar with young NFL stardom, the man who gets paid to run the Giants’ defense put in perspective the next challenge for his unit.
at FedEx Field — putting them in prime position to qualify for the playoffs in the NFC. In that game, they did a credible job against Terry McLaurin, Washington’s top pass-catching threat, limiting him to six receptions for 70 yards. The Giants did not do as good a job on rookie Jahan Dotson .Kirk Cousins threw for 460 yards in the Vikings’ comeback win over the Colts.What comes next is a different challenge.
Flott knows what he is talking about. He was a teammate of Jefferson’s at LSU in 2019 — Flott’s first year in college and Jefferson’s final year. Flott got an eyewitness account of what Jefferson can do on the field — 111 catches for 1,540 yards and 18 touchdowns, teaming with quarterback Joe Burrow to help the Tigers to the national championship. Jefferson was the No. 22 overall pick in the 2020 draft.
In an age where wide receivers dominate the sport like never before, Jefferson rises higher than anyone else. His 307 receptions are the second-most in NFL history in the first three seasons of a player’s career — only the Saints’ Michael Thomas has more. It comes as no surprise that Jefferson this season leads the NFL in catches and receiving yards to go along with seven touchdowns.Nick McCloud reacts during the fourth quarter of the Giants’ win over the Commanders last week.“Yeah, he’s at the top right now,” safety Julian Love said. “Watching him on tape, he’s doing special things. You got to know where he is every single snap because he’s a guy who can beat you. We can’t let him beat us alone.
