Vikings earn second-consecutive NFC Defensive Player of the Week
The Minnesota Vikings secured their second-consecutive Defensive Player of the Week award as safety Camryn Bynum wins the award for his week seven performance against the San Francisco 49ers.
Bynum was the catalyst for the Vikings win on Monday night. He had nine tackles (seven solo) and two passes defended, but forcing three takeaways (forced fumble, two interceptions) was the major key in the Vikings victory.
After the Vikings threw an interception on their third play, Bynum forced a Christian McCaffrey fumble five plays later and the Vikings scored on the ensuing drive.
The Vikings played drop-eight coverage with a cover three base and Bynum drops as a robber. He leaps up and snatches the ball out of the air to seal the game for the Vikings.
This is the second player of the week award for the Vikings, as Jordan Hicks won the award the previous week.
