Vikings special teams coach Mike Priefer will be suspended by the team for up to three games this season as a result of his conduct with former Vikings punter Chris Kluwe. Kluwe alleges that Priefer made various inappropriate remarks to Kluwe. An independent investigation could only confirm a single offensive statement attributable to Priefer that was later confirmed by Cullen Loeffler, the Vikings snapper.
Priefer can have his three game suspension reduced to two games if he attends anti-harrassment, diversity and sexual-orientation sensitivity training.
