Minnesota Vikings Request To Interview Broncos Defensive Coordinator

The Denver Broncos just made the massive move to land Super Bowl winning Head Coach Sean Payton, and he will now go to work putting a staff together, and the biggest decision around that involves Defensive Coordinator Ejiro Evero, who is drawing attention from all around the league.

One more team that is now requesting to interview him is the Minnesota Vikings, as they have a vacancy in their Defensive Coordinator role, but at this point, it's not quite clear yet whether Payton will allow the interview, as he has spoken with Evero, but nothing official has come out about his future in Denver.

The #Vikings requested permission to interview #Broncos DC Ejiro Evero for the same job, per source. Coach Sean Payton has spoken to Evero about his old job, but has not given freedom to speak with teams.

Meanwhile, Denver requested Brian Flores & Sean Desai for their DC job.

After the Broncos elite defence carried the team in 2022, Evero has become one of the hottest coaching commodities on the market, and with the new regime in Denver and some Head Coach opportunities out there, it feels like one way or another, his time is likely done in the Mile High City.
