Mackensie Alexander

Entering his third season with the Vikings, this year could be Alexander’s final shot at securing himself a future in Minnesota.

Luckily for him, the third season has typically been good to some of the Vikings’ cornerbacks in the recent past. Minnesota corners Xavier Rhodes and Trae Waynes were each able to take their play to the next level during year number three of their careers.

Could a similar outcome be in store for Alexander in 2018? If he is unable to finally establish himself as the Vikings’ third corner next season, the exit door could be what ends up being in his future instead.
