With his fifth catch on Sunday against the rival Green Bay Packers, a simple hitch route he turned into a 17-yard gain, the four-time Pro Bowl wide receiver hit the four-digit mark for the sixth consecutive year. Jefferson immediately received a loud ovation from the U.S. Bank Stadium crowd.

By virtue of their 9-8 record and third-place finish in the NFC North, the Vikings know who their opponents will be next season and where they will pick in the first round of the NFL draft.

The Vikings need to add some reinforcement this offseason after going 9-8 in 2025. They do just that in this early 3-round 2026 NFL mock draft

J.J. McCarthy exited injured again, yet Minnesota cruised past a resting Green Bay team 16-3 as the Vikings finished the season with five straight wins.

J.J. McCarthy, still bothered by an injured right hand, bowed out of his last chance this season to impress his coaches and Vikings fans.

The Minnesota Vikings are closing out the regular season hosting the Green Bay Packers at U.S. Bank Stadium, and it sure felt like a sendoff for Harrison Smith.

McCarthy did add one play to his 2025 highlight reel on Sunday, though it was another mixed result. On the Vikings' first drive of the game, McCarthy sprinted out of the pocket and took off running. Along the way, he flattened linebacker Ty'Ron Hopper with a stiff-arm before slamming into cornerback Keisean Nixon on the sideline.

The two longest-tenured Vikings appear to be headed for retirement after getting a special sendoff on Sunday at U.S. Bank Stadium. Ham has essentially confirmed as much, while Smith at least left the door open a crack to the idea of playing a 15th season. If he ends up going that route, he'd need a new one-year contract.

More reports are out that the Dallas Cowboys are extremely interested in hiring Minnesota Vikings Brian Flores as their next defensive coordinator.

The Green Bay Packers believe their lack of momentum heading into the postseason shouldn’t make much of a difference now that they’re in the playoffs
