Brian Flores has both a tough and envious task.
In one way, Flores starts his job as the Vikings defensive coordinator with a huge challenge. Outside of edge rusher Danielle Hunter, linebacker Jordan Hicks and safety Harrison Smith, Minnesota largely fields a young starting defense, with little experience in key roles.
In another way, Flores is taking over a defense that was horrific one year ago. In short, his influence is both welcome and needed for a team that, despite going 13–4 last year, many national pundits believe is ready to have a down year.
Jonathan Taylor asked for a trade last month after the Colts declined to lock him down on a long-term deal earlier this summer.

Less than a week after requesting a transfer from Paris Saint-Germain, Brazilian star Neymar is close to getting his wish.

The report comes after Neymar did not appear in PSG’s Ligue 1 opener on Saturday, which ended in a 0–0 draw against Lorient.
Cowboys rookie running back Deuce Vaughn was arguably the most talked about Dallas player after the team’s 28–23 loss to the Jaguars in the preseason on Saturday.

One of Vaughn’s biggest fans appears to be Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott.
