Justin Jefferson Pulls Hilarious Prank on Vikings GM Kwesi Adofo-Mensah with Fake Photo Shoot
Minnesota Vikings’ star receiver, Justin Jefferson, recently executed a humorous prank on the team’s General Manager, Kwesi Adofo-Mensah. This amusing event took place during a training camp session at the TCO Performance Center.
Justin Jefferson’s Hilarious Prank
The prank was part of a segment for Eli Manning’s “The Undercovers” on Amazon Prime Video. In the prank, Jefferson assumed the identity of Darius Frost, a photographer, and set up a fake photo shoot.
Kwesi Adofo-Mensah arrived in a typical business-meets-casual outfit, expecting the usual photo session. However, he was in for a surprise as Jefferson engaged him in a series of humorous exchanges.
Amusing Interactions
- Jefferson jokingly quizzed Adofo-Mensah about the Minnesota state bird, pretending his expertise was in bird photography.
- Feigning ignorance about Adofo-Mensah’s role, Jefferson asked what “GM” stands for, humorously suggesting it means “Great Man.”
- He humorously admired Jefferson’s own football skills, claiming to be a fan and joking about a $140 million contract extension.
The prank climaxed when Darius Frost showed Adofo-Mensah a series of dark, barely visible photos, leaving him puzzled. The big reveal came when Adofo-Mensah was brought back in for one last shot, only to realize he had been fooled by Jefferson in disguise.
Jefferson’s Delight
After the prank, Jefferson expressed his enjoyment of the experience. He praised Adofo-Mensah for playing along with the act, noting how exciting it was to disguise himself and deceive the General Manager successfully.
Achievements and Statistics
Since being picked 22nd overall in the 2020 NFL Draft, Jefferson has become a key figure for the Vikings. His stats boast 524 catches, 7,881 yards, and 41 touchdowns over five-plus seasons. In June 2024, Jefferson signed a four-year, $140 million extension, positioning himself as one of the franchise’s greatest receivers.
