Justin Jefferson pulls off epic prank on Vikings GM as undercover photographer
In a lighthearted moment captured on video, Minnesota Vikings star Justin Jefferson showcased his comedic talent by pranking general manager Kwesi Adofo-Mensah while disguised as a photographer. This amusing escapade unfolded in the latest episode of *Eli Manning Presents: The Undercovers*, available on Amazon Prime Video.
Undercover Antics
Jefferson, stepping into the shoes of a fictional nature photographer named Darius Frost, managed to go incognito at the Vikings’ TCO Performance Center for several minutes. Given that Adofo-Mensah had signed Jefferson to a lucrative four-year, $140 million contract extension not too long ago, one might expect the GM to recognize his star player. However, he was completely oblivious to the ruse.
As Frost, Jefferson delivered a series of humorous lines that highlighted his comedic chops. Among his memorable quips were, “Did you know the Minnesota state bird is the common loon?” and, “Sorry Mr. Kwesi, I don’t really know about football, so can you tell me what you do here?” His playful antics included asking Adofo-Mensah to strike a “Viking pose” for the camera, a request the GM gracefully declined.
The Big Reveal
Despite some telltale signs—such as Jefferson’s distinctive voice and laugh—Adofo-Mensah remained unaware of the prank. The situation escalated as Frost expressed admiration for Jefferson himself, leaving the GM momentarily puzzled. It wasn’t until several minutes into their interaction that the light bulb finally flicked on for Adofo-Mensah, who realized he was speaking to his star wide receiver.
The video has since gained traction on social media, delighting fans with the unexpected encounter. Jefferson’s ability to maintain his disguise while engaging in light banter with the GM is a testament to his playful spirit and versatility, proving he might just have a future in acting—or at least in comedy.
This delightful prank underscores the camaraderie within the Vikings organization, showcasing a lighter side of professional sports that fans rarely get to see.
