As the regular season finale approaches, talk about the future of Minnesota Vikings defensive coordinator Brian Flores is moving to the forefront. His contract expires when the season is over, and he will surely draw multiple interviews for head coaching openings.
On Monday, Vikings head coach Kevin O'Connell made his thoughts about Flores absolutely clear.
"I absolutely want Brian Flores to be the defensive coordinator of the Minnesota Vikings as long as we can have him. And I would say this: I do know that he's demonstrated a lot of things that if, you know, having gone through the process of the head coach hiring process before myself, I imagine he's going to be a pretty popular guy there as well.
