At 25 years old, Jefferson becomes the youngest ever two-time 99 Club member, having also received the 99 rating for Madden 24.
Jefferson also is the first Viking to earn a 99 rating more than once. The Vikings previous 99 Club Members were guard Randall McDaniel (Madden 99), defensive end Jared Allen (Madden 11) and running back Adrian Peterson (Madden 14).
Six current players across the league are part of Madden 25’s 99 Club: Jefferson, Dolphins WR Tyreek Hill, 49ers RB Christian McCaffrey, Chiefs TE Travis Kelce, Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes and 49ers tackle Trent Williams.
