Former Vikings stars Cris Carter, Jake Reed, and Justin Jefferson showed their love and support for the late Randy Moss during Monday night’s game against Carolina Panthers. The duo brought out a Vikings jersey with Moss’ name on it during the pregame coin toss, sparking a crowd reaction. In the first quarter, Justin Jefferson paid tribute to Moss by making a heart gesture with his hands after catching a touchdown.
Moss, who has been battling cancer, was overjoyed by the tributes from his former teammates and fans. The Vikings community came together to show their support for the legendary receiver, who played a significant role in Minnesota’s success during his seven seasons with the team. Moss’ departure from ESPN’s “Sunday NFL Countdown” followed recent news of his cancer battle.
The tributes were not limited to just one night. Adam Thielen, another Vikings alumni, wore a Moss Vikings jersey to Carolina’s game against Dallas Cowboys, citing Moss as the reason he started playing football. The outpouring of love and support from the team and fans serves as a testament to Moss’ lasting impact on the Minnesota community.
