Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Justin Jefferson is active for Sunday's game against the New Orleans Saints.

Jefferson missed last week's contest after sustaining an ankle injury in Week 3. The star wide receiver was listed as questionable and considered a game-time decision.

Wide receiver Jordan Addison, who was listed as questionable with a hamstring injury, is inactive. He was a limited participant in the final two practices of the week after missing Wednesday's session.

Odell Beckham Jr. is also inactive against the Saints. The veteran wideout was elevated from the practice squad this week.

Jefferson has caught 13 of 17 targets for 179 yards and two touchdowns this season.

Minnesota is one of only three undefeated teams heading into Sunday's slate.
