💬 But drama isn’t dead: former Vikings assistant Mike Pettine, who just retired, dropped a bit of shade, saying he and Flores didn’t see eye-to-eye on a lot of things. That vibe has fans buzzing about how Flores’ hard-nosed style lands with other coaches and teams. 😅
🏃♂️ The HC chase continues: Flores remains a top candidate for multiple NFL head coaching openings, though several frontrunners are already in the mix. If he lands a big job, that new Vikings deal could become void. 🏃♀️🏟️
📈 For now, look for Flores to remain in Minnesota in 2026 and keep building on the Vikings’ defense while the HC market plays out. 🧠📊
🔥 Takeaway: The Vikings are prioritizing stability on defense, even as Flores’ head-coach ambitions keep this storyline moving.
