He said, “So, in order to reach that, that position is so much more that I have to accomplish, so much more that I have to set for myself to better myself and really to learn. I just can’t wait to really just see how far I can really go. This is just the start of my career, and there’s just so much more I have to learn, so much more I have to do for myself to really get on that platform of being a Hall of Famer.”

Kirk Cousins, who is the quarterback of the Minnesota Vikings has good chemistry with Jefferson. Both of them have performed quite well over the last two seasons and will hope to continue doing the same in the future.

Talking about his new head coach Jefferson said, “Our offensive style, it’s not a run-first offense anymore. Just us being able to put different people in different positions and distribute the ball, really. I’m so excited in this offense. Us just being in OTAs, learning the plays, going through it with our defense, and stuff.

He added, “We’re all excited. We’re all happy to have (O’Connell). It’s definitely a different vibe, a different connection in the building with him there. We’re just excited to start it up, really. We want to see how this season really turns out for us.”

The Minnesota Vikings fans are very excited for the next season of the NFL. A new head coach can certainly help them to reach the playoffs, and they have a great chance of winning their division also since the Packers aren’t as good as they were last year.
