Despite just signing Dalvin Tomlinson, the Minnesota Vikings are reportedly interested in free-agent defensive tackle Geno Atkins.

Last season, the Minnesota Vikings had one of the worst defensive lines in the NFL. They couldn’t put pressure on the opposing quarterback and they couldn’t stop the run.

Some of their struggles in 2020 were out of their control thanks to injuries and COVID-19. But improving this element of their team is something that the Vikings have clearly placed a heavy emphasis on this offseason.
