A day after Vikings GM Kwesi Adofo-Mensah took to the podium to answer media questions at the NFL scouting combine, head coach Kevin O’Connell did the same on Wednesday afternoon. Among the topics discussed was Vikings safety Lewis Cine and his health heading into 2023.
Of course, Cine was the No. 32 pick in the 2022 NFL Draft, and the first pick made by the Vikings after they traded down from No. 12 with the Detroit Lions. It was a controversial move at the time, but that trade, along with another with the Green Bay Packers, allowed Minnesota to land players like CB Andrew Booth Jr.
