Vikings Install Nolan Teasley as GM With Final Say Over 53‑Man Roster

Overview

• Nolan Teasley was formally introduced as the Vikings’ general manager on Wednesday, June 3, with ownership giving him final authority over the team’s 53‑man roster.
• The club clarified the chain of command by having Teasley and head coach Kevin O’Connell report directly to ownership and by making longtime executive Rob Brzezinski report to Teasley.
• Teasley says his immediate priorities are a full roster evaluation and resolving the urgent quarterback competition between Kyler Murray and J.J. McCarthy.
• In his first personnel moves Teasley signed two recently waived Seattle receivers, a step that highlights his Seahawks background and an early Seattle‑to‑Minnesota player connection.
• Former Vikings GM Kwesi Adofo‑Mensah has taken a personnel role with the San Francisco 49ers, while Brzezinski’s retention preserves salary‑cap experience and continuity inside the Vikings’ front office.
