The last OTA practice open to the media showed a lot of different things that the Minnesota Vikings were trying out. Not only did they have cornerback Mekhi Blackmon in the slot with the first team, they were also trying out a three-safety package with Josh Metellus.
The idea of a three-safety package is one that Brian Flores will likely deploy a lot this season. The linebacker room isn’t very strong and the Vikings have a wealth of riches at safety. Harrison Smith, Camryn Bynum, Lewis Cine, Jay Ward and Metellus are all players that should see significant snaps in some capacity this season.
