Sean Desai withdraws from consideration for Vikings’ DC position

While the Minnesota Vikings are still trying to add names to their search for their next defensive coordinator, one of the men they have already interviewed has decided to drop out of the running for the job.

Sean Desai, who the Vikings interviewed a couple of weeks ago, has withdrawn his name from consideration for the position.

Desai was the second person to interview for the opportunity to succeed Ed Donatell, following then-Saints defensive assistant Ryan Nielsen. Nielsen has since been hired by the Atlanta Falcons as their defensive coordinator.

With Desai dropping out of the running, there are now two.
