Justin Jefferson practiced for the second straight day on Thursday. However, his status remains unchanged.
The star receiver was limited for the second straight day on Thursday as he looks to return from an ankle injury he suffered in Week 3 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Jefferson spoke to the media on Wednesday and said he wants to play.
Jordan Addison was a limited participant after missing Wednesday's practice with a hamstring injury. CB Chuck Demmings (hamstring) was also upgraded to limited after not practicing since Week 3. Christian Darrisaw (concussion) missed a second straight day of practice and appears on track to miss Sunday's game.
Brian O'Neill (knee) was limited for a second straight day. Aaron Jones returned to full participation
