Jefferson recorded 57 total tackles (37 solo) and seven passes defensed, including four interceptions, across 13 regular-season games in 2025.
EDGE Analysis
The 33-year-old hadn't been a regular member of a first-team defense since the 2019 season, but he started eight of the 13 regular-season games in which he appeared this year. Jefferson posted career highs in passes defensed and interceptions while also recording his most tackles since the 2018 campaign with the Ravens. Having signed a one-year deal with the Chargers last offseason, Jefferson is set to become a free agent and will likely find work with a team in need of secondary depth ahead of the 2026 season.

Jefferson recorded five tackles (five solo) and an interception during Monday's 22-19 win versus the Eagles.
EDGE Analysis
Jefferson recorded an interception for the second straight game in Week 14, this time catching a red-zone pass that was tipped up by 2024 fifth-rounder Cam Hart to clinch a Chargers win in overtime. His role in Week 15 at Kansas City may largely depend on the health of teammate Elijah Molden (hamstring).

Jefferson (hamstring) does not have an injury designation ahead of Sunday's matchup versus the Steelers, Eric Smith of the Chargers' official site reports.

Jefferson hurt his hamstring against the Vikings in Week 8. After sitting out this past Sunday's win against the Titans, the veteran defensive back logged limited practice sessions Wednesday and Thursday before upgrading to full participation Friday this week. Jefferson is thus set to return to action Sunday.

Jefferson (hamstring) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's game against the Titans.
EDGE Analysis
Jefferson suffered the injury in Week 8 against the Vikings and was unable to practice at all leading up to Sunday's game against Tennessee. Elijah Molden should log nearly all of the snaps at free safety in Jefferson's absence.

Jefferson (hamstring) did not practice Wednesday.
