Of all the things Vikings cornerback Akayleb Evans had to learn this season — a new scheme, a different set of coverage techniques in Brian Flores' defense — there might be nothing more essential than the video defensive pass game coordinator Daronte Jones sent him.
Evans' rookie year ended after a Dec. 4 injury against the Jets sent him to the NFL's concussion protocol for the third time. He made two starts last season — the Jets game and the victory over the Bills on Nov. 14 — and left both games because of concussion symptoms.
