The Minnesota Vikings and Kwesi Adofo-Mensah have made free agency one of their key traits for team-building success. The 2024 season starting as great as it has speaks to his and his staff’s eye for talent.
Those outside the building are recognizing that trait.
Dan Graziano and Jeremy Fowler of ESPN discussed what offseason acquisitions are making the most significant impact for their teams, and the Vikings mentioned three players. Andrew Van Ginkel, Jonathan Greenard, and Blake Cashman completely revamped this linebacker group for the Vikings. They made an impact in the first game and haven’t stopped since.
Constant pressures by Brian Flores with this group have the Vikings leading in this category. The other two can step up when one player gets out of the game. They are creating constant chaos, and it is reflected when you catch the opposing quarterback play.
This weekend, they will look to create more chaos in front of international fans as they face Aaron Rodgers and the New York Jets.
