Vikings can’t afford another disappearing act from Jauan Jennings

Anthony Miller writes that the Minnesota Vikings need wide receiver Jauan Jennings to significantly step up against the Miami Dolphins in Week 4. With star receiver Justin Jefferson sidelined by an ankle injury, increased offensive responsibility falls on Jordan Addison and Jennings, who caught just one pass for one yard in Week 3.

The Vikings signed Jennings during the offseason to serve as a reliable third receiver and contested-catch target. Miller argues that Minnesota needs Jennings to establish himself on third downs to aid quarterback Kyler Murray and support the running game, warning that poor production could alter his role in the offense.
