Minnesota Vikings free-agent chatter has moved from “the team should sign this guy” hubbub to a plausible possibility that the franchise may soon ink a notable WR3.
If Josina Anderson, formerly of ESPN, is correct, former Jacksonville Jaguars WR Dede Westbrook could soon join the Vikings, assuming WR3 duties in Klint Kubiak’s offense.
Minnesota must joust with two other AFC teams for Westbrook’s services in the Kansas City Chiefs and Cincinnati Bengals.
Neither of those franchises possess Westbrook’s ex-WR coach, though. Earlier in 2021, the Vikings brass hired former WR Keenan McCardell to coach its wide receivers.
