The Minnesota Vikings recently got a visit from Pro Football Hall of Fame defensive tackle Alan Page during their August training camp session. Page was a part of the Vikings team during the Purple People Eaters era, where the domination of the defensive line was noted league-wide.
Page is the most recent of the Minnesota Vikings legends that have been brought in to talk to the team. Former players and coaches like Jerry Burns and Mick Tingelfhoff have also been a part of the program that has these figures from the team’s history speak with players and coaches.
