Vikings WR Justin Jefferson sets record for most receiving yards in first three NFL seasons


The records for Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Justin Jefferson keep coming.

After setting numerous records throughout the first half of this season, the standout third-year player set another one Thursday night.

With his 37-yard reception in the second quarter of the Vikings' Thanksgiving matchup against the New England Patriots, Jefferson set the NFL record for most receiving yards in the first three seasons of a career, passing Vikings legend and Pro Football Hall of Famer Randy Moss.

It's an impressive feat anytime a record held by Moss is broken.

Through 44 games, Jefferson had 4,186 yards while serving as the catalyst for the success of the Vikings over the last three years.

Which record will be next to fall at the hands of Jefferson?
