EDEN PRAIRIE, Minn. — The Vikings on Friday announced the lifting of the interim designation for Offensive Coordinator Pat Shurmur, as well as multiple changes, including two new hires, to Minnesota’s assistant coaching staff.
Shurmur, who was hired in 2016 as tight ends coach in 2016, became the Vikings interim offensive coordinator in November after Norv Turner resigned.
The Vikings also announced Kevin Stefanski will shift from coaching running backs in 2016 to quarterbacks this season. Kennedy Polamalu has been hired to coach running backs, and Clancy Barone has been hired to coach tight ends.
