Notebook: Mitch Leidner Ready for Bite of the NFL Apple with Vikings

Related Topics: Vikings, Mitch Leidner

EDEN PRAIRIE, Minn. – expected to be delivering food this week, but instead he’ll be delivering the football.

The former Golden Gophers quarterback has been moonlighting as a delivery driver for Bite Squad while spending his days at the gym and on the football field, hoping for an NFL team to contact him.

He got that call Saturday night while fishing up north at his family’s cabin.

“I didn’t have my phone necessarily right by me at the moment,” Leidner told Twin Cities media members after coming off the field from his first Vikings practice.
