Current Minnesota Vikings Coaching Staff

Minnesota Vikings defensive coordinator Brian Flores interviewed with three of the teams looking for a new head coach. Those three teams were the Chicago Bears, New York Jets, and Jacksonville Jaguars. All three teams went in a different direction. Perhaps it was due to Flores’ still-pending lawsuit against the league and a few teams over hiring practices. Perhaps it was simply due to those teams preferring another coach. Who knows? The New Orleans Saints are the lone team still looking for a new head coach. As long as there’s an open job there’s a chance Flores gets the head coaching shot that he deserves. Despite that possibility, it looks like the Vikings will have their outstanding defensive coordinator around for another season. That’s a very good thing. 

Teams have been interested in other Vikings coaches. Quarterback coach Josh McCown also interviewed for the open Jets job. Assistant quarterback coach/Assistant offensive coordinator Grant Udinski has interviewed for a few of the available offensive coordinator jobs. Defensive backs/Pass game coordinator Daronte Jones has interviewed for a couple defensive coordinator jobs. We’ll see if those lead to a job offer. So far, it looks like the Vikings might keep the coaches that coached the team to a 14-4 season.
