Hey, everybody, welcome to another episode of Purple Insider, Matthew Collar here.

And guess what?

Justin Jefferson was back on the Minnesota Vikings practice field today.

A big day toward his return to the field. And we can stop maybe asking,

when is Justin Jefferson coming back? What's going on there? Et cetera, et cetera. He did not

participate in everything today as he worked toward his return from a mild hamstring injury, which has been, I guess,

uh, maybe a questionable about the world, the word mild, um, because it seemed a little

bit more than super mild, uh, a little tiny mild. What, what level of mild? Like, when you get a hot

sauce at a restaurant or a dip and it says mild,

you assume that it's not going to have a whole lot of heat to it. This, but I guess medium is

less than mild, right? For you people who know food, medium is less than mild. Maybe this was more

mild and not medium, but definitely not hot when it came to his hamstring strain.

But whatever version of that is, whatever grade of it is, was not enough to keep him out for the entire training camp.

And he was back today. And what he was doing today was not a whole heck of a lot, but he was on the side field,

running routes, getting throws from Max Brosmer and Brett Rippin when those guys weren't getting

some reps and taking part in the walkthrough portion, which was pretty much the most of the

practice today. It was not an intense practice. This is not one that we can break down every single J.J. McCarthy throw.

Although I do think, oh, it is mild as less than medium, huh?

Okay.

So maybe this was medium.

This was medium.

And maybe not mild.
