Justin Jefferson has been ruled out of the Vikings' Week 3 matchup against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers after sustaining an ankle injury in the first quarter. Per ESPN, Jefferson injured his left ankle during the game. He entered the blue medical tent in the first quarter and left the field midway through the second quarter, according to CBS Sports.
Most outlets reporting the story identified the injury as an ankle injury, though CBS Sports' reporting described it as a knee injury in their headline and summary. Jefferson had two catches on the Vikings' opening drive before the injury occurred.
