Seahawks assistant GM gets second interview for Vikings job

The Minnesota Vikings’ search for their next general manager rolls along… and has lingered a bit in the Pacific Northwest. After firing Kwesi Adofo-Mensah at the end of January, the team in the Twin Cities is still looking for the head man for the big front office role. Adofo-Mensah was released by the team, speculatively, in part (at least optics-wise), due to the decision to let both Sam Darnold and Daniel Jones walk in free agency in favor of sophomore QB, J.

J. McCarthy. That decision would seem to haunt the Vikings after the Seattle Seahawks went from a 10-win team to the Super Bowl champion in one year with Darnold at the controls.

McCarthy would go on to put up the 35th-ranked QB Rating (out of 36) in the league last year. The Vikings have requested a second interview with Seahawks assistant GM Nolan Teasley, according to @SeifertESPN . https://t.

co/0SBR6pSorq — Brady Henderson (@BradyHenderson) May 20, 2026 In his 14th season with the ‘Hawks (4th as Assistant General Manager), Nolan Teasley is one of five candidates that were requested for Minny’s second round of interviews. The Central Washington University alum began as a scouting intern in Seattle and worked his way through multiple levels of responsibility. If Teasley is hired by Minnesota, being considered a minority candidate, it would return a third-round pick in each of the next two NFL drafts for the Seattle Seahawks.
