The NFL Combine is a time for coaches, scouts and other team employees to evaluate some of the top talent going to the pros next season.
It’s also a time where there are a lot of media members asking questions, and not all of those questions have to do with the current draft class.
Vikings coach Mike Zimmer got his share of unrelated questions at the NFL Combine.
Asked about his choice between Twizzlers and Red Vines, Zimmer answered Twizzlers to a group of reporters.
Next, he was asked about his preference between Reese’s and Twix, Zimmer said Reese’s.
Do these answers actually say something about Zimmer’s decision making as coach of the Vikings? Absolutely not. It is all in good fun, though.
Red Vines have been in the news recently. LeBron James of the Los Angeles Lakers enjoyed some of the candy while sitting on the bench in what ended up a 118-109 win over the Pelicans, per Business Insider.
