Key Points:
- The Minnesota Vikings have hired former Chicago Bears GM Ryan Pace as a football adviser to support new general manager Nolan Teasley.
- Pace, who led the Bears from 2015 to 2021 and recently worked with the Atlanta Falcons, will provide GM-level guidance for Teasley, who was hired from the Seattle Seahawks.
- The Vikings also added Azzaam Kapadia, formerly of the Seahawks, as assistant director of pro scouting, continuing Teasley's trend of bringing in Seahawks personnel.
- Several front office members departed recently, including assistant GM Demitrius Washington and senior personnel executive Jamaal Stephenson, as Teasley reshapes the team’s personnel department.
- Assistant GM Ryan Grigson remains with the Vikings but will assume a different role, while new assistant GM Andrew Healy, formerly with the Cleveland Browns, has also been hired.
