Reactions from within the Minnesota Vikings showed that they were extremely worried. Some sources said that the team’s leadership had an emergency meeting to discuss Jefferson’s future if the scandal continued to escalate. Meanwhile, the NFL is also considering opening an independent investigation, which could lead to severe penalties, from suspension to huge fines.
Jefferson has tried to defend himself by posting a lengthy post on his personal page, denying all allegations and claiming that the video was “edited and misinterpreted.” However, these efforts seem to have failed to appease public opinion. Fans are clearly divided into two camps: one side believes Jefferson is a victim of the media and those who want to bring him down, the other believes the star player has gone too far and is no longer worthy of wearing a Vikings jersey.
