NFL Draft Prospect injured in multi car accident | Requiring multiple surgeries
According to Adam Schefter of ESPN, Louisiana Lafayette star wide receiver Michael Jefferson was involved in a multi-car crash in Alabama that has resulted in multiple surgeries.
Jefferson is a tall target with build-up speed and a receiving style that gets better the further he gets from the line.
He is a big time target who could struggle to uncover against tight man coverage over the first two levels, but he can make big plays.
He has decent ball skills and works into the zones effectively, and will challenge veterans on an NFL roster.
Update:
Alabama Law Enforcement Agency officials tell TMZ Sports … the accident occurred on U.S. 43 in Mobile County, Ala. at around 7:55 PM — when a 55-year-old man who was driving a 2014 Dodge Charger collided head-on with Jefferson’s 2019 Chevrolet Impala.
Authorities say following the initial collision, a 2008 Nissan Maxima also struck the Dodge. The driver of the Dodge, officials tell us, was not wearing a seat belt and was pronounced dead at the scene.
