And why shouldn’t it?
The month of July will be upon us tomorrow, and that means we’ve only got about three weeks before the long, dark tea time of the offseason comes to an end and the Minnesota Vikings officially report to Training Camp. If you’ve got the opportunity to catch anything on the NFL Network tomorrow, their programming is going to center around the best receiver in the game today.
Yes, according to the NFL’s official account on Twitter/X/whatever we’re calling it today, their programming for Tuesday, 1 July, will be “Player’s Choice” featuring Justin Jefferson. As you’d expect, there are a lot of Vikings games to be had, so let’s take a look at the full slate for Tuesday. All times listed are Central time.
- 10:00 AM – Justin Jefferson: A Football Life Origins
- 10:30 AM – Tennessee Titans at Minnesota Vikings, 2020 NFL Week 3 (Jefferson’s breakout game)
- 1:00 PM – Minnesota Vikings at Dallas Cowboys, 1998 Week 13 (Randy Moss’ 3/163/3 Thanksgiving game)

All in all, it looks like a pretty solid day of football viewing on the NFL’s official channel. If there are things you’re wanting to get on your DVR or if you have the day off work and just want to veg out in front of the TV, it should help to get you through the next few weeks. It’s a start, at the very least.
