Heinicke struggling today. A couple bad misses. Nearly picked off by Sendejo.
Floyd and Rhodes just had an EPIC trash talk battle before 1 on 1. Floyd edged out X and the entire WR crew erupted in celebration.
Brothers is still out but Tre Roberson is back in pads this afternoon. #VikingsCamp
When I asked if he was worried about his eye w Bradford tackle Zimmer: "Nah not really I wasn't worried about it. He can't hit that hard"
(For context, Bradford was in a 2 minute drill yesterday and after scoring ran up and tackled Zimmer)
Zimmer: Wants to see live action before making a decision at WLB. Lamur, Robinson, and Gedeon all in the mix. Complimented Gedeon's play.
Back at it for a downright chilly AM walkthrough at #VikingsCamp. Treadwell is participating and seems to be moving well.
Hopefully hamstring is minor.

Most of the bloggers have had good things to say about Gedeon. He's more of an ILB though so it will be interesting to see how it plays out.

Brothers can't be happy how this training camp is going for him. Pulling a hamstring on the first day.
Agree with you...Gedeon appears to be having a good camp.

Day 12

http://www.mnvikingscorner.com/2017/08/ ... ref=tw&m=1
Wide receiver Stefon Diggs stole the show and continues to display how special his season could be if he stays healthy. He ran a beautiful corner route between cornerback Trae Waynes and safety Harrison Smith. Diggs also got the crowd fired up after he hauled in a 50-yard fade against cornerback Xavier Rhodes. He is on another level when he steps onto the field and runs routes. His crisp footwork and smooth speed freeze defensive backs every time he comes in and out of his breaks.

Feels like April 1st...

It appears, officially, that the big scare that came out of the Minnesota Vikings’ scrimmage in Mankato last night wound up being much ado about nothing.

Offensive tackle Rashod Hill, who got carted off the field during the scrimmage after what appeared to be a nasty ankle injury, will apparently not miss any time, according to his agent.

What's wrong with Treadwell?

The Devil whispered in the Viking's ear, "There's a storm coming." The Viking replied, "I am the storm." ‪#‎SKOL2018

I think he injured his hamstring when he and Exum got into it.
