EDEN PRAIRIE – The weeks leading up to an NFL season can be a grind, but Justin Trattou has been reaping rewards.
Through three preseason games against the Bengals, Seahawks and Chargers, Trattou has played 127 snaps, leading all defensive linemen. He’s totaled nine tackles, a forced fumble and 4.5 sacks, two of which came against San Diego on Sunday.
“That’s the best feeling in the world,” Trattou said. “All these practices, all these dog days, are for those Sundays when you can go out there and get sacks. That’s the end goal.
