Justin Jefferson is the best wide receiver in football. That matters for the Minnesota Vikings, but so does the relationship that he has with head coach Kevin O’Connell. The superstar wideout went the anti-diva route about his new contract, and he has shown that same personality when interacting with his leader on game days.
Head coaching matters and Kevin O’Connell is great for Minnesota Vikings
The Minnesota Vikings are projected by many to struggle this season. Sam Darnold is an unknown commmodity at this point in his career. Kevin O’Connell might be the difference maker to bring it all together. Justin Jefferson certainly seems to know what he has in a leader. When Kay Adams asked Jefferson why he stayed in Minnesota there was a quick answer.
It’s beyond evident that a good portion as to why the Vikings are a cohesive unit starts at the top. Unlike the messaging heard from former coach Mike Zimmer, Kevin O’Connell clearly is loving his time in Minnesota. That is reciprocated by those that compete for him.
