Is Justin Jefferson playing today? Vikings WR has tough start with Max Brosmer at QB image

This might not be good for the Minnesota Vikings.

Max Brosmer at QB has a chance to be a nightmare Christmas Day for the Vikings against the Detroit Lions on Thursday in Week 17.

The first drive was a three-and-out, and so no one really got to see much of anything.

Brosmer threw an incompletion, followed by a stuffed run, followed by a sack.

None of the stars did anything yet.

Is Justin Jefferson playing today?

Yes, Jefferson is playing on Christmas.

He was out there on the first series running routes.

Brosmer just couldn't complete a pass.

Jefferson has had a rough season. He needs 83 yards to get to 1,000 for the season, and even with this and another game to go, it doesn't appear to be a sure thing.

Hopefully, Jefferson will get going eventually on Thursday.
