The Minnesota Vikings and San Francisco 49ers fans held their breath because of one play. In a single play of the Vikings’ imposing win, Justin Jefferson and Nick Bosa, potentially the best players on the field, both went down on the same play.
Jefferson was unable to return to the game and was listed as questionable when he went to the locker room, and Bosa had to be taken off the field as well.
Watch: Justin Jefferson And Nick Bosa Down On Same Play
Each fan base witnessed one of their best players go down in a matter of seconds on the same play. Late in the third quarter, after Jefferson had the longest catch of his career, both Bosa and the star receiver left the game.
JJ needed some help to get off the field and then into the locker room after he inadvertently got hit low by Fred Warner. Bosa suffered a lower-body injury on the play as well in a separate part of the field.

I’m about to retire…
Nick Bosa, Justin Jefferson, Fred Warner injured on one play.
Bosa: concern for left high ankle
Jefferson: concern for right quad contusion, limped off w/ help, not overly concerned for now
Warner: right knee slammed into Jefferson. Likely non-issue pic.twitter.com/3mkBcVoaJY

It was a crazy day for injuries, as moments before this play, Geroge Kittle got carted off the field to the locker room, thankfully he was able to return to the game later on.
While they both left the game, and Jefferson did not return, they should both be healthy and ready for the next game thankfully.
Jefferson had an incredible game before getting hurt, and after the game, he said he is not concerned about the injury and will be ready for the next game:

Jefferson got a 97-yard touchdown earlier in the game, and Minnesota fans are thrilled to know that their best player will be fine.

Both Bosa and Jefferson should be fine, but that has to be one of the scariest moments for both teams at the same time.
