As the Vikings prepare for a playoff game against the Los Angeles Rams on Monday night in Inglewood, Calif., their defensive coordinator, Brian Flores, has started to garner interest from a number of teams searching for their next head coach.

The Jets and Saints have also already fired their head coach, and the Jaguars, Giants, Raiders, and others loom as teams that could join them. Flores figures to at least get some interviews in this cycle. O'Connell and the Vikings will certainly be hoping he sticks around for a third season in Minnesota.

If Monday’s reports are any indication, Brian Flores’ days as the Minnesota Vikings defensive coordinator might be numbered.
