MINNEAPOLIS (WCCO) — The Vikings are constantly looking for help — especially in someone that can do something unique. Isaac Fruechte is just looking for an opportunity to play in the NFL.
He grew up in Caledonia and played for the Gophers, and now he hopes his next team is again from his home state.
“It’s pretty awesome,” Fruechte said. “Hopefully I can make the team and then be really wearing purple for the year.”
He has avid followers in Caledonia — his father is a high school coach there. Back home, having Fruechte practice with the Vikings is a big deal.
