Vikings sideline Justin Jefferson with ‘very mild' hamstring strain
EAGAN, Minn. (AP) — The Minnesota Vikings will keep wide receiver Justin Jefferson off the field for awhile because of a mild strain of his left hamstring. Coach Kevin O'Connell said before practice on Friday that Jefferson would be re-evaluated next week. The two-time All-Pro, who has the most receiving yards in NFL history through a player's first five years, felt some tightness in his leg during the team's session on Thursday and cut short his participation as a precaution. The Vikings sent him for an MRI exam afterward.

EAGAN, Minn. (AP) — The Minnesota Vikings will keep wide receiver Justin Jefferson off the field for awhile because of a mild strain of his left hamstring. Coach Kevin O'Connell said before practice on Friday that Jefferson would be re-evaluated next week. The two-time All-Pro, who has the most receiving yards in NFL history through a player's first five years, felt some tightness in his leg during the team's session on Thursday and cut short his participation as a precaution. The Vikings sent him for an MRI exam afterward. O'Connell described the injury as 'very mild' and said he had no concern about Jefferson being ready for the season opener at Chicago on Sept. 8, which is more than six weeks away. Still, considering his value to the team, the type of the injury and the demands of his position, Jefferson figures to miss more than just a few days of training camp practices. Jefferson suffered a significant strain of his right hamstring in 2023 that caused him to miss seven games. Thursdays Keep up to date on sports with Mike McIntyre's weekly newsletter. ___ AP NFL:

Purdue calls leaked playbook allegation against ex-Memphis player ‘mischaracterized'
WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. (AP) — The Purdue Boilermakers believe the alleged leaking of a playbook from defensive back Tahj Ra-El, a former Memphis player, to UTSA quarterback Owen McCown has been 'mischaracterized.' Ra-El left Memphis in the middle of last season and has since transferred to Purdue where coach Barry Odom is in his first season. 'Our coaching staff sees this scenario as being mischaracterized and does not have any concerns moving forward,' the athletic department said in a statement given to The Associated Press on Friday. The controversy erupted last week when On3 published screenshots of an alleged conversation between the former high school teammates from Charlotte, North Carolina. 'Far left is coverages. i'll send you better list showing you the call,' the screenshot showed Ra-El wrote. 'But they run qtrs none of they safeties can cover btw (sic).' Ra-El also reportedly told McCown that starting safety Kourtlan Marsh had an injured hamstring. Marsh didn't play in the game, which UTSA won 44-36 after scoring 30 consecutive points to erase a 24-14 halftime deficit. During the American Conference media days, UTSA coach Jeff Traylor said the information had 'no bearing whatsoever' on the outcome of that game even though he said he had not heard about the allegations until last week. 'The stuff he sent him didn't make any sense, so he didn't tell me,' Traylor said. 'He was just being nice to his buddy. It got blown out of context in my opinion.' McCown threw for 3,424 yards and 25 touchdowns with 10 interceptions in 13 games last season, his first as the Roadrunners starter. They finished 7-6 and beat Coastal Carolina in the Myrtle Beach Bowl. Memphis coach Ryan Silverfield reportedly said he and Traylor were seated across from each other during a media day event and they decided it was best to move on from the controversy. ___ AP college football:
