Minnesota Vikings HC Kevin O'Connell - Creating New Plays - Foundational concept with a tweak to present a different look to the defense. Have things that start out looking the same but are different. Create uncertainty for the defense. - Work backwards from the principles of how the defense is built. Attack their rules & put them in conflict.

Jake Golday is a long-limbed, physically imposing off-ball linebacker with a blend of production, athleticism, and technique that projects him as a Day 2 NFL draft selection. Full write-up on the Bearcats linebacker ⬇️ drafthuddle.com/2026/position/…

Fun fact: There are about 60 players on the Vikings' roster right now, and Dallas Turner is still the 4th youngest.

Lee Hunter is a powerful interior defensive lineman with rare mass, natural leverage, and consistent disruption against the run.

I remember talking to someone back in Cleveland at lunch break after seeing Randy in his first training camp practice. They asked how Randy looked. By this time I had seen some of the world’s best athletes in person: Carl Lewis in track, Deion, Barry Sanders, Cris Carter- I had never seen anyone move and perform like Randy, so effortlessly, albeit it in shorts, against other world class athletes. I said, if he stays healthy, he’s got to be a Hall of Famer.
