Smith, in particular, is an interesting hire; he'd played a big role in Mike McDaniel's run game in Miami, and will have a key voice in the Vikings' run game. He's coached OL and TEs, and will speak into some of the Vikings' scheme and technique design.

The Vikings made four moves for their coaching staff on Saturday, hiring former Dolphins OC Frank Smith as assistant head coach while promoting Keith Carter to the OL coach job.

On defense, they hired Ryan Nielsen as their DL coach and brought in Gerald Alexander to replace Daronte Jones.

The Vikings took an ambitious swing when they hired Kwesi Adofo-Mensah, one of the NFL's least experienced GM hires in a long time. I think that's the lens to view his tenure, his firing and all the (oft-denied) rumors of discord in between. Analysis:

What led the Vikings to fire GM Kwesi Adofo-Mensah?
Minnesota took a big swing by making the inexperienced Adofo-Mensah its GM -- and missed.

NFL salary cap over the years:

2013: $123M
2014: $133M
2015: $143.28M
2016: $155.27M
2017: $167M
2018: $177.2M
2019: $188.2M
2020: $198.2M
2021: $182.5M
2022: $208.2M
2023: $224.8M
2024: $255.4M
2025: $279.2M
2026: $301.2M-$305.7M (projected)

Business is booming.
The NFL informed clubs today it is projecting a 2026 salary cap in the range of $301.2 million to $305.7 million per club, per source.

That would represent another significant jump from this year’s $279.2 million cap number, and nearly $100M than the $208.2M cap in 2022.

Rob Brzezinski will provide some stability for now, but it's another major change for the front office. Assistant GM Ryan Grigson's future could be in doubt, and it's fair to wonder if a new GM will trigger a larger series of moves.

There had been tension in the Vikings organization over the past couple years, particularly as the team's drafts had failed to produce consistent starters. But Kwesi Adofo-Mensah had been down at the Senior Bowl this week, as the Vikings had deliberated about what to do.

What a goal. Yurov to Tarasenko in right circle back to Yurov as he drove through the left circle to the back door. 1-0. Second time they tried that play that shift, the first attempt Tarasenko to Daemon Hunt
