CINCINNATI — Ivan Pace Jr. had a standout rookie season for the Minnesota Vikings in 2023 and he revealed to Kay Adams that he’s taking another step forward in his career.
The former Cincinnati Bearcat star is relaying the defensive plays this season as a starting linebacker on the team.
“They gave me that trust that they have so I believe now that he’s gone (former starter Jordan Hicks) I’ll definitely wear the green dot this coming season,” Pace told Adams on Up & Adams.
Pace posted 63 tackles, 2.5 sacks, one interception, and one forced fumble in 17 games as a rookie. He made a fantastic decision to sign with Minnesota and took full advantage of his opportunities.
