For the second time in three weeks, a member of the Minnesota Vikings’ special teams has been recognized with an award.
This time, it’s punter Ryan Wright, who was named the NFC’s Special Teams Player of the Week Award for his performance in the Vikings’ 24-16 victory over the Miami Dolphins this past Sunday at Hard Rock Stadium.
Wright saw plenty of work on Sunday, as he was called on to punt 10 times on the afternoon. He averaged 44.1 yards/punt in those 10 punts, with six of them being downed inside the Miami 20-yard line.
