Not known for being the world’s biggest fan of kickers, Minnesota Vikings head coach Mike Zimmer came out in defense of his team’s kicker on Monday.
Unfortunately, what happened on Sunday to the Minnesota Vikings is something that head coach Mike Zimmer has experienced far too many times in his tenure with the franchise.
Vikings kicker Greg Joseph lined up for what seemed like a simple field-goal attempt from 37 yards away with just seconds left in the fourth quarter against the Arizona Cardinals. But instead of Minnesota celebrating their first win of the 2021 season on Sunday, Joseph missed the kick, and the Vikings are now sitting with an 0-2 record.
