A recent report indicates the Minnesota Vikings are interested in bringing back former cornerback Mackensie Alexander.

If anyone hasn’t noticed yet, the Minnesota Vikings are laser-focused on improving their defense this offseason.

The Vikings have already signed defensive tackle Dalvin Tomlinson and linebacker Nick Vigil in free agency this year, and the majority of their free-agent interest has been in players who line up on the defensive side of the ball.

To help get their defense back to performing like it did during the first few seasons of Mike Zimmer’s tenure as the team’s head coach, Minnesota is reportedly considering a free-agent corner who was a member of some of those past purple and gold defenses.
