There’s No Way This is One of the Most Popular NFL Jerseys in Minnesota

New research by FlashPicks details the most popular NFL jerseys in each state, and what they have at the top of the list for Minnesota will keep me up at night.

Kirill Kaprizov is the most-sought Minnesota Wild jersey. That makes sense. So does the fact that Anthony Edwards is the best-selling Minnesota Timberwolves jersey. When it comes to the Minnesota Twins, Byron Buxton still leads the way. Minnesota Lynx? Glad you asked. This season its Napheesa Collier. Those all make perfectly good sense to me.

In the NFL overall, the top selling jersey this season belongs to Caleb Williams of the Chicago Bears. On the Major League Baseball side of things, the top spot for 2024 goes to Los Angeles Dodgers Shohei Ohtani. The top-selling NBA jersey so far in 2024 belongs to Stephen Curry of the Golden State Warriors. On the ice, the best-selling NHL jersey this year is worn by Connor Bedard of the Chicago Blackhawks. In the WNBA, the top seller this year is the Indiana Fever's Caitlyn Clark. Again, I totally understand every one of those.

OK, now on to the most popular NFL jerseys in Minnesota. According to the report by FlashPicks, here's what they say the best sellers.

Tens Best-Selling NFL Jerseys in Minnesota

1. Jordan Addison (Minnesota Vikings)
2. Jordan Love (Green Bay Packers)
3. Justin Jefferson (Minnesota Vikings)
4. Travis Kelce (Kansas City Chiefs)
5. Davante Adams (Las Vegas Raiders)
6. Caleb Williams (Chicago Bears)
7. J.J. McCarthy (Minnesota Vikings)
8. Joe Burrow (Cincinnati Bengals)
9. Patrick Mahomes (Kansas City Chiefs)
10. Adam Thielen (Carolina Panthers)

Seriously? Not only do I have a huge internal question mark with Jordan Love being number-two on the list, Jordan Addison can' be number-one -- can he? And Jefferson has got to be on top -- right? I mean, I get Kelse at number four. (Thanks Taylor!)

Poor Sam Darnold is only the 80th most popular NFL jersey sold in Minnesota, but that would likely change dramatically if he keeps leading the Vikings to victory this season.
