What are some things to know about Vikings rookie corner Jeff Gladney?
The Minnesota Vikings selected TCU cornerback Jeff Gladney with the 31st overall pick in the 2020 NFL Draft.
Five cornerbacks were selected before him, and the Vikings nabbed Gladney after trading back six spots with San Francisco 49ers. Minnesota acquired three picks in the trade and they turned the draft capital into Gladney, former South Carolina defensive end D.J. Wonnum, and former Miami wide receiver K.J. Osborn. It was a vintage Rick Spielman transaction when it comes to accumulating draft picks.
