It’s certainly been an interesting process throughout the Vikings defensive coordinator search. Thus far, they’ve interviewed four candidates: Sean Desai, Brian Flores, Ryan Nielsen, and Mike Pettine.
However, Nielsen has accepted a spot with the Atlanta Falcons in the same role, and on Friday, it was reported that Desai would be withdrawing from consideration, throwing a wrinkle into the process.
For the past few days, we’ve known that the Minnesota Vikings have been enamored with one candidate in particular: Broncos defensive coordinator Ejiro Evero. Earlier in the week, news came out that the Vikings wanted to get an interview with Denver’s DC before making a decision on their hire.
