Seam routes are popular this week... Teddy under center hits Rudy for a big gain up the middle pinching ball inbewteen coverage
Not as good a day for Waynes. Teddy started off weak, but is finishing strong.
Treadwell pushes Waynes upfield enough to gain separation before his comeback.. Caught on TW for 12 yards
Greenway has been doing well, but Kendricks has now twice lost TEs in coverage
Michael Griffin has had some first team reps, as has Waynes
Clemmings is struggling against both BRob and Hunter
Teddy audibled to a screen against a house blitz. Good yardage

OL/DL drill now. Boone and Floyd an even matchup. Berger handles Joseph, Fusco wins battle against Johnson.
Sirles beaten by Trattou and B-Rob beats Clemmings on spin move. Beavers destroyed by Floyd. Sullivan handled by Stephen too.
Andre Smith didn't have too much trouble with Hunter on the last rep.

Lamur almost picks off pass on seam route to Wright from Hill
Sparano is really in there coaching the OL between reps against the DL.

Hill with a nice floater down the right sideline 30 yards down field right off the finger tips of MoBo who had his man beat by a step
DL OL drills done. Good showing by the DL, who definitively won the day. Boone only OL who stood out

Good stuff DP! Thanks for sharing.

I like the job Sparano has been doing. Sound like he's coaching them up, and in the trenches with them.
I read Beavers is doing better than expected.

Kearse so far has been having a strong camp.

Jerick McKinnon just got "twisted" up during team drills, says Mike Zimmer. "He's fine. He'll be all right." #Vikings

Good good. Nice to hear that Boone is standing out. I would love to see Kearse step up and win the job, would be nice to have a tall hard hitting safety. Kinda bothers me Sullivan is getting man handled though .

Did you guys catch the Norv Turner comment on the the new tight end 5th or 6th round tight end might have the best
hands on the Vikings ? Sounds like Turner wants a new pro bowl tight end....in his offense ....should be interesting to follow

Hearing Harris' thing is concerning and potentially long-term. Potentially out for the year. I don't think it's something "easy" like an ACL or broken bone either.

So anti-climatic after his free agency period this spring. Bummer.

Mike Zimmer said Adrian Peterson should be practicing today. Peterson has been nursing a slight hamstring strain... es.pn/2auJQrA
#Vikings back at practice for morning walk-thru. O-line is Kalil, Boone, Sullivan, Fusco and Smith.
