Cleveland challenge prepared John DeFilippo for Vikings OC job

EAGAN, Minn. -- New Minnesota Vikings offensive coordinator John DeFilippo has only been around his players in an official working capacity since April 16. But even in that short time, they've quickly grasped parts of his personality and what he's after.

Stefon Diggs described how his energy resonates with his offensive coordinator and keeps him locked in on the field. Kendall Wright noted the creativity of DeFilippo's scheme, filled with so many unique and new elements that the veteran slot receiver struggled to find an overarching theme that defines the Vikings' offense.
