EDEN PRAIRIE, Minn. -- It's not difficult to find members of the Minnesota Vikings organization willing to express lofty projections for Danielle Hunter's future. There are few who do it as vociferously, however, as the man whom Hunter might eventually supplant this fall.
Brian Robison is back with the Vikings for his 11th season, having restructured his deal this spring to add a year in 2018 in exchange for a salary reduction in 2017. The 34-year-old has been working with the Vikings' second-team defense this spring, while Hunter takes Robison's old spot at left end following a 12 1/2-sack season in 2016.
