Jefferson drew praise from teammates and coaches during the Vikings virtual offseason, including from Vikings Offensive Coordinator Gary Kubiak.
"I think he's done some things that give him a good head start moving forward," Kubiak said in mid-June.
Jefferson, who stands at 6-foot-1 and weighs 202 pounds, was clocked at 4.43 seconds in the 40-yard dash at the NFL Scouting Combine.
Jeff Gladney
Gladney, the 31st overall pick, is among a handful of cornerbacks who will vie for playing time in 2020.
The former TCU standout is 5-foot-10 and weighs 191 pounds but brings a feisty attitude to the team.
He started 10 of 12 games in 2019, totaling 31 tackles (24 solo), one interception and 1.5 tackles for loss. His 14 passes defensed led the Big 12.
Gladney is the first TCU player to be drafted by the Vikings in the first round in franchise history.
