Vikings wide receiver Jalen Reagor was in for just two snaps Sunday, but he made them count.In Minnesota’s 27-22 win over the New York Jets at U.S. Bank Stadium, Reagor had a 38-yard catch and an eight-yard run. He called the reception business as usual.
“Personally, that’s what I do,” he said. “That’s what I’m here to do. So, that’s a routine play for me. Been doing it all my life. So, it was good for the team, good for the drive and another spark for the offense.”
Acquired Aug. 31 from Philadelphia, Reagor has been Minnesota’s primary punt returner but has played just 40 snaps from scrimmage in 12 games. Asked if he’d like to play more, Reagor said, “Of course. Everybody does.”
“Everybody wants their number called,” he added. “But when they do call my number, I’m going to make the play every time.”
Head coach Kevin O’Connell said Reagor’s late start with the Vikings has played a role in his limited snaps from scrimmage but that he expects him to be a “factor” down the stretch.
“We’ll continue to find ways to get him on the field,” O’Connell said. “I think he’s earned that opportunity. I’m really proud of where Jalen’s at and hopefully where he’s headed.”
