Justin Jefferson 1-yard TD gives Vikings 7-3 lead over Lions

Justin Jefferson has made it to the end zone.

Kyler Murray hit Jefferson for a 1-yard touchdown early in the second quarter, giving the Vikings a 7-3 advantage.

Jefferson was matched up one-on-one on the left side, and was able to tip the fade pass to himself, diving to secure the catch.

It was Jefferson’s fourth touchdown of the season and his first reception of the contest.

Murray has now started the game 4-of-9 for 62 yards with a TD.

The Vikings could’ve scored in the first quarter, but Will Reichard missed a 57-yard field goal wide right.

Additionally, Detroit receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown had to be checked in the locker room after going down on what was eventually ruled an incomplete pass in the end zone. But he was back on the sideline and on the field for the next possession.
