Of course, chances are that Justin Jefferson was simply sending a peace sign to the many Vikings fans in attendance. The ESPN broadcast led by Joe Buck and Troy Aikman stated that there were Minnesota supporters than Rams fans in attendance.
Jefferson signed a lucrative four-year contact extension with Minnesota worth $140 million before the start of the season. If he didn’t want to stay in Minny long-term, the 2020 first-round pick would have sought a trade, knowing that another team would have happily paid him top dollar.

The 25-year-old Jefferson racked up 103 receptions for 1,533 yards and 10 touchdowns in 2024, helping Sam Darnold enjoy a career year that will likely culminate in Comeback Player of the Year honors.
Jefferson has now crossed the 60-catch and 1,000 yards receiving in each of his first five NFL seasons. The numbers he put up this year were especially impressive considering that JJ had to share the ball with Jordan Addison, TJ Hockenson and Cam Akers.
