The defensive backfield for the Minnesota Vikings in 2020 featured a lot of young players, most notably draft picks Jeff Gladney and Cameron Dantzler. The secondary saw a significant improvement over the course of the season, led by those two players, and the man that played a significant role in that might be departing after just one season in purple.
Louisiana State Univerisity has announced that they will be interviewing Vikings’ defensive backs coach Daronte Jones for their open defensive coordinator position.
A Louisiana native, Jones came to Minnesota this past season after spending two seasons with the Cincinnati Bengals as their defensive backs coach.
