Is Minnesota Vikings superstar wide receiver Justin Jefferson really "putting pressure" on the team to trade him?
No, he is not, at least not because of the viral social media post alleging his "preferred destinations" are the Buffalo Bills, Kansas City Chiefs and New York Jets.
Fake "insider" Richard Johnson shared the post on Wednesday, which is not real in the slightest. It's a prank post meant to trick people into thinking that Jefferson wants out of Minnesota. Nobody has suggested this in actuality.
We have no idea how Jefferson feels about being with the Vikings, but this "report" is bogus. It's not real.

Sorry to all the fans who fell for this one. As far as we know, Jefferson is perfectly content in Minnesota.
This is a fake post meant to troll people. Keep your head on a swivel out on the interwebs!
Are you sure?
Yes; Richard Johnson probably isn't even a real person. It's all just a big prank.
