Source: Browns' Kwesi Adofo-Mensah, Chiefs' Ryan Poles gain second interviews in Vikings' GM search

After interviewing eight candidates for their general manager job, the Vikings plan to meet with two of them again next week, a source confirmed.

The team has requested second interviews with Browns vice president of football operations Kwesi Adofo-Mensah and Chiefs executive director of player personnel Ryan Poles, a source confirmed. The two men are expected to interview in Minnesota for the job next week, before the Vikings pick a candidate to succeed Rick Spielman, who was fired on Jan. 10.

Sources said this week both men were impressive in the initial round of interviews, which also included the Browns' Glenn Cook, the Eagles' Brandon Brown and Catherine Raiche, the Titans' Monti Ossenfort, the Patriots' Eliot Wolf and the Buccaneers' John Spytek.
