Why Ejiro Evero is at the Top of the List to be Vikings Defensive Coordinator

After a series of moves by the Denver Broncos, their now former defensive coordinator Ejiro Evero has been released from his contract and will be interviewed by the Vikings in the next few days. The Vikings have interviewed several candidates for their defensive coordinator opening, but Evero has reportedly been at the top of their list- if available. Up until he was released from his contract after talks with Broncos new head coach Sean Payton, his availability to be Vikings defensive coordinator seemed unlikely at best. The Broncos could and did block him from interviewing for a lateral move, and Evero was also a candidate for head coaching openings (he remains an option for a couple teams but doesn’t appear to be the favorite).
