Minnesota Vikings star wide receiver Justin Jefferson is committed to joining his team's training camp in July. During Tuesday's practice with the Vikings, Jefferson allayed fears of him missing the training camp next month amid his desire to secure a contract extension.

“Will I be here?” Jefferson said. “Oh yeah. Yeah,” Justin Jefferson told reporters, per Kevin Seifert of ESPN.

Jefferson still has a couple more years left in his current deal. He is set to earn a base salary of $2.399 million in 2023 and $19.743 million in 2024. He definitely feels he warrants a massive contract extension with the Vikings as the former LSU Tigers star has done nothing but impress on the field for Minnesota ever since he arrived in the league in 2020.
