Michael Pierce has indeed been a difference maker. He’s suprisingly nimble for such a humongous person, and he’s a monster in run defense.

Even still, he may be fighting for his future with the Vikings. He carries a $10.5 million cap hit next season, so he’ll need to continue his elite play to stick around in 2022.

In the meantime, enjoy having a legit DT tandem in the middle of the defense. Pierce and Dalvin Tomlinson are a great pair, especially since Armon Watts has also emerged.
