Some Vikings players always fly under the radar and get snubbed in award races and Pro Bowl nominees. Fans of the purple team are used to it.
Justin Jefferson somehow wasn’t named first-team All-Pro in 2021 despite having the second-most receiving yards, and Brian O’Neill went to his only Pro Bowl in 2021 despite years of fantastic play. Harrison Smith is a one-time first-team All-Pro, and it could cost him his Hall of Fame induction.
