EAGAN, Minn. – The Vikings on Monday confirmed they have conducted a second interview with Kevin O'Connell for their open head coaching position.

This interview was conducted in-person on Monday in Los Angeles. O'Connell initially interviewed virtually with Minnesota on Jan. 21, which made him eligible for a second interview this week, despite the Rams advancing to Super Bowl LVI.

O'Connell is currently the offensive coordinator for the Los Angeles Rams, who will represent the NFC after defeating San Francisco Sunday. The Rams scored the game's final 13 points in a 20-17 victory over their division rival.

The 36-year-old is in the second year with Los Angeles and has been the Rams OC for both seasons.

O'Connell was a member of the 49ers coaching staff (special projects) in 2016 and overlapped that season with new Vikings General Manager Kwesi Adofo-Mensah.
