Report: Will Levis was never an option for Vikings at 23

The Minnesota Vikings were in the market for a quarterback in the 2023 NFL draft, but they struck out in their attempt to trade up. According to The Athletic’s Alec Lewis, the Vikings never considered Levis at 23rd overall.

Why wasn’t Levis in the cards for the Vikings? There are a number of reasons, but there isn’t a staff that would have been able to get more information on him than the Vikings.

Head coach Kevin O’Connell has ties to both of Levis’ offensive coordinators Liam Cohen and Rich Scangrello, who also has ties with general manager Kwesi Adofo-Mensah.

There is also a newly reported toe injury that teams are concerned about.

What will the Vikings do in the NFL draft in terms of quarterback? That remains to be seen, but Levis likely won’t be that guy.
