Vikings hire Ryan Pace and Azzaam Kapadia for front office roles

The Minnesota Vikings are enhancing their front office under GM Nolan Teasley by hiring former Chicago Bears GM Ryan Pace as a football advisor and Seattle Seahawks scout Azzaam Kapadia as assistant director of pro scouting. Teasley has been focused on building a supportive team as he prepares for the upcoming 2026 season, following several departures in the organization. Pace brings experience from his time in Chicago, where he guided the Bears to the playoffs twice, while Kapadia is known for his extensive film analysis skills. The Vikings are working to finalize their leadership team prior to training camp starting next month.
