Re: Winfield plays days after brother's murder
Antoine is a real fighter. Little guy - huge heart. Definitely my favorite Vikings player on the roster. I love all the usual superstars, but I've always appreciated his effort and him being able to make up for the fact that he's considered small for a football player. Love that guy.
