Jaydon Mickens could fix the punt return problems for the Minnesota Vikings.
Special teams certainly has not been a strength of the Minnesota Vikings since Mike Zimmer took over as the franchise’s head coach in 2014.
Under Zimmer, the Vikings have struggled with kicking, punting, and this season the team’s return game is causing a ton of problems. Currently, Minnesota ranks last in the NFL in punt return average and 19th in kick return average.
In addition to their lack of return yards, the Vikings have also seen their returners cough up the football more than once this year.
