Earlier this offseason, the Minnesota Vikings lost their previous defensive backs coach to LSU where he would become the NCAA team’s new defensive coordinator, opening up the position to a new hire for the 2021 NFL season.

The search for a new coach didn’t seem to take the purple and gold very long. News of an expected hire came in from AL.com’s Matt Zenitz on Twitter and the move seems like a logical one for Minnesota.
