The Vikings have a new person leading every major role on special teams, after a season in which kicker Dan Bailey struggled late in the season, the team ranked last in the NFL with 4.3 yards per punt return and 30th with 43.5 yards per punt, and kickoff return unit didn't provide much of a field-position advantage.
COORDINATOR
Ryan Ficken: Former longtime assistant coordinator replaced Marwan Maalouf and has simplified the schemes, allowing specialists to play faster.
KICKER
Greg Joseph: The 27-year-old journeyman hasn't kicked in a meaningful game since the 2019 postseason.
PUNTER
Jordan Berry: Played his first six seasons with Pittsburgh before getting beat out by rookie Pressley Harvin III this summer. Replaces Britton Colquitt as punter and holder, providing better hang time and direction.
