​The Minnesota Vikings haven’t had much luck with individual rankings “lists” this summer, but Pro Football Network recently came along to change that just a bit. PFN annually ranks the Top 100 players in the NFL, following the lead of NFL.com, ESPN, CBS Sports, and others. For PFN, wide receiver Justin Jefferson and outside linebacker Andrew Van Ginkel got the nod.Jefferson and Van Ginkel will headline their sides of the ball in September, and ranking them inside the Top 100 just makes sense.AdvertisementAdvertisementAdvertisementMinnesota Vikings wide receiver Justin Jefferson lines up against Los Angeles at State Farm Stadium, studying the defense before the snap during NFC Wild Card action.

Such was the case with Justin Jefferson last year, who managed to crack the 1,000-yard mark for the sixth year in a row, in spite of the Vikings’ quarterback woes in 2025. He still has the most receiving yards of any NFL player through the first six seasons of their career.”“Though Jefferson dropped to No. 38 in the PFN WR Impact Score rankings in 2025, he’s been a top-four finisher four times since joining Minnesota in 2020. We chalk the down year up to bad quarterbacking, as he’s proven he’s one of the best route runners, pure athletes, and ball-trackers in the entire league.”AdvertisementAdvertisementAdvertisementHouston Texans outside linebacker Will Anderson Jr. found a home at No. 17 right beneath Jefferson.Van Ginkel at No. 99 One spot for Dallas Cowboys guard/tackle Tyler Smith, who rounded out the Top 100, Van Ginkel wiggled onto the list.Katz on Van Ginkel: “During his first five seasons with the Miami Dolphins, Andrew Van Ginkel was a reliable, incredibly efficient rotational edge rusher.”“Since signing with the Minnesota Vikings in 2024, he’s blossomed into a star. He was a Pro Bowler and a second-team All-Pro in 2024 with 11.5 sacks, 18.0 tackles for loss, six pass deflections, and an NFL-high two interceptions returned for touchdowns.”AdvertisementAdvertisementAdvertisementThe 31-year-old missed five games last season due to a neck injury, but that did not deter PFN’s ranking process.Minnesota Vikings linebacker Andrew Van Ginkel lines up before the snap at Lumen Field, reading Seattle’s formation as the offense prepares for another play.
