EAGAN, MN – Vikings running back Dalvin Cook and rookie wide receiver Justin Jefferson were named Monday to the Pro Bowl.
Cook earned the honor for the second straight season. He leads the NFL in yards from scrimmage with 1,833 and touchdowns with 15 and is second in rushing yards with 1,484.
Jefferson has 73 catches for 1,182 yards. Last week, he broke Randy Moss’ team record for catches in a rookie season and needs just 132 yards to break Moss’ team rookie yardage record. Jefferson is only the third Vikings receiver to be honored as a rookie, joining Sammy White in 1976 and Moss in 1998. He is 21, just the third player to earn a Pro Bowl honor at that age, joining Moss and Amari Cooper in 2015 with the Raiders.
The Pro Bowl will not be played this season due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
