Very quietly, D.J. Wonnum has been developing into a rock-solid EDGE2 for Minnesota.
Coming into the season, the plan was for Marcus Davenport to take on that job, replacing the traded Za’Darius Smith.

The fourth-year player is on the final year of his rookie contract, so few would be surprised if he has just a tiny bit more motivation.
