Steelers' Van Jefferson: Finishes game with 39 yards
Jefferson secured both of his targets for 39 yards during Thursday's 24-19 loss to the Browns.
Jefferson aggravated a quad injury in the first half of Thursday's primetime matchup but returned after halftime. He recorded a 35-yard reception in the third quarter and finished the game with his second-highest yardage total of the season. However, the 2020 second-rounder had been held without a catch in each of his previous two games, highlighting his inconsistency during the 2024 campaign.

Steelers' Van Jefferson: Aggravates quad injury
Jefferson is questionable to return to Thursday's game against the Browns due to a quad injury, Brian Batko of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.
Jefferson dealt with the same issue prior to Week 11 but was ultimately able to suit up. He took a hit late in the first quarter of Thursday's game that seemed to aggravate the issue, and it's now unclear if he'll retake the field.

Steelers' Van Jefferson: Fails to secure lone target
Jefferson was unable to secure his lone target during Sunday's 18-16 win over Baltimore.
Jefferson dealt with a quadriceps injury ahead of Sunday's Week 11 tilt, but he played through the issue against Baltimore. However, he was held without any yards from scrimmage for a second consecutive game. While the 2020 second-rounder has consistently seen the second-most offensive snaps of any Steelers receiver this season behind only George Pickens, Jefferson hasn't been a reliable fantasy contributor and could see his role decrease even more as Mike Williams adjusts to his new team.

Steelers' Van Jefferson: Cleared to play Sunday
Jefferson (quadriceps) doesn't carry an injury designation into Sunday's game against the Ravens, Mike DeFabo of The Athletic reports.
After missing practice Wednesday, Jefferson was limited Thursday and upgraded to full Friday. The veteran wideout hasn't been a fantasy factor all season and could start losing playing time to trade acquisition Mike Williams as soon as this week.

Steelers' Van Jefferson: Returns to limited practice
Jefferson (quadricep) was limited at practice Thursday, Brooke Pryor of ESPN.com reports.
Jefferson missed Wednesday's session, so his upgrade to limited participation a day later bodes well for his chances of being available Sunday against the Ravens. Through nine games this season, Jefferson has logged a 14-139-1 line on 23 targets, a pace that limits the wideout's fantasy utility to deeper formats.

Steelers' Van Jefferson: Fails to practice Wednesday
Jefferson didn't practice Wednesday due to a quadricep injury, Brooke Pryor of ESPN.com reports.
Jefferson will have two more chances to log some practice activity before the Steelers decide whether he'll carry a designation into Sunday's game against the Ravens. If Jefferson ends up being sidelined in Week 11, it could open up more playing time for Mike Williams in his second game with the Steelers, after Williams hauled in a game-winning 32-yard touchdown on his only target in his Pittsburgh debut last Sunday against the Commanders.

Steelers' Van Jefferson: No catches in narrow win
Jefferson failed to secure either of his two targets in Sunday's 28-27 win over Washington.
Jefferson had a season-best performance in the Steelers' final game before their Week 9 bye, securing four of five targets for 62 yards. Although he was on the field for 71 percent of the team's offensive snaps against the Commanders, the 2020 second-rounder was held without a catch for the third time this season. Jefferson hasn't been a consistent fantasy option this year, and his role seems likely to diminish as Mike Williams gets up to speed on the playbook.

Steelers' Van Jefferson: Racks up four catches in Week 8
Jefferson secured four of five targets for 62 yards during Monday's 26-18 win over the Giants.
Jefferson has been inconsistent for most of the 2024 season, but he racked up a season-high 62 receiving yards during Monday's primetime win a week after reaching the end zone for the first time this year. The 2020 second-rounder has had more success with Russell Wilson than he had with Justin Fields, and Jefferson played 80 percent of the team's offensive snaps Monday. Over the first half of the season, he has secured 14 of 21 targets for 139 yards and a touchdown.

Steelers' Van Jefferson: Reaches end zone in win
Jefferson secured two of three targets for 15 yards and a touchdown during Sunday's 37-15 win over the Jets.
Jefferson wasn't targeted in last week's win over the Raiders, but he saw more work in Week 7 with Russell Wilson under center and reached the end zone for the first time this season. Jefferson has had multiple receptions in four of his first seven appearances of the season, but he's totaled just 77 receiving yards and a touchdown while securing 10 of 16 targets. The switch from Justin Fields to Wilson could provide a boost to Pittsburgh's entire passing game, however.

Steelers' Van Jefferson: Not targeted against Raiders
Jefferson failed to record a single target in Sunday's 32-13 win over the Raiders.
Jefferson was held without a target for the second time in 2024, despite playing 64 percent of the Steelers' offensive snaps Sunday. It's possible that a change at quarterback could benefit Jefferson with Russell Wilson preparing to start in Week 7. Nonetheless, the veteran wideout will be difficult to trust heading into a Week 7 matchup against the Jets.
