NGT: Vikings suspend OC for 3 weeks

GFAN52 : 4/2/2024 1:34 pm
The Minnesota Vikings suspended offensive coordinator Wes Phillips for three weeks without pay following the legal resolution of a 2023 traffic stop in Minneapolis, the team confirmed.

The suspension began Tuesday and will conclude April 22, with Phillips returning to work on April 23. He'll miss a key portion of draft preparation as the Vikings pursue their next quarterback, as well as the first week of the team's offseason strength and conditioning program, which begins April 14.

Only $378 for a DUI? Am I missing something?

I've never gotten one, but some of my friends have and I thought the fines were about 10 X that. Maybe it was the lawyer fees.

It's the increase in his insurance premium that will hurt the worst.

They want him to start working with "their new QB" I assume right after the draft.
