Vikings Expected To Hire Curtis Modkins As RBs Coach
3 years agoThe Minnesota Vikings are expected to hire Denver Broncos running backs coach Curtis Modkins as their run-game coordinator/running backs coach, according to a source. Denver's ground game with Melvin Gordon III and Javonte Williams was the offense's strength in 2021, and Modkins will now head to Minnesota to work with lead-back Dalvin Cook. Modkins joined Denver in 2018 under then-head coach Vance Joseph. Both Modkins and soon-to-be Vikings head coach Kevin O'Connell worked together for the San Francisco 49ers in 2016, with Modkins serving as the team's offensive coordinator. Modkins has been coaching in the NFL since 2008, when he was the Kansas City Chiefs running backs coach.
