One of the more intriguing storylines leading up to the start of the 2021 season for the Minnesota Vikings was who would fill the role of the team’s third wide receiver. This role took on much greater importance after the injury to tight end Irv Smith Jr., who many people (myself included) were expecting to have a breakout season in 2021 before he was injured in the final preseason game.
I did a post at some point during Training Camp that I can’t seem to find now, but I do remember a lot of people pointing out in the comments that I had completely skipped over second-year receiver K.
