Jeremiah Sirles pushing Matt Kalil at left tackle?

A very interesting item from Wednesday’s Star-Tribune rundown of the action at Wednesday’s first open practice of OTAs.

Via Star-Tribune:

The starting offensive line for Wednesday’s non-padded workout featured Phil Loadholt at right tackle, Brandon Fusco at right guard, Joe Berger at center, Alex Boone at left guard and Jeremiah Sirles at left tackle.

Matt Kalil was in uniform and has started every game at left tackle since 2012. But coaches wanted to see more of Sirles, who backed up right tackle last year.

When asked about the early first-team lineup, Vikings coach Mike Zimmer said the coaches are just looking at different combinations.
