Vikings should add a veteran cornerback before 2020 season

After selecting former LSU wide receiver Justin Jefferson with pick No. 22 in last week’s NFL Draft, the Minnesota Vikings didn’t have much time before they were back on the clock to make pick No. 25.

After going offense with their first selection in the draft, the Vikings and head coach Mike Zimmer switched their focus to the defensive side of the ball for their next choice. So with their second pick in the first round, Minnesota decided to add a talented piece to their secondary in former TCU cornerback Jeff Gladney.
