The Vikings are getting closer to playing football. Training camp ramps up this week with the start of an eight-day strength and conditioning program that features some on-field work (rookies started earlier). We’ll preview the key points at each position until practices are scheduled to begin Aug. 12; full pads on Aug. 17.
Receivers/tight ends
WRs: Adam Thielen, Justin Jefferson, Tajae Sharpe, Bisi Johnson, Chad Beebe, K.J. Osborn, Dillon Mitchell, Quartney Davis, Davion Davis, Alexander Hollins, Dan Chisena, Bralon Addison
TEs: Kyle Rudolph, Irv Smith Jr., Tyler Conklin, Brandon Dillon, Nakia Griffin-Stewart
Offseason moves
In: Jefferson (first-round pick); Sharpe (1-year, $1 million); Osborn (fifth-round pick); Davis (undrafted); Griffin-Stewart (undrafted)
Out: WR Stefon Diggs (traded); WR Laquon Treadwell (free agent); TE David Morgan (free agent)
Outlook
Trading Stefon Diggs to the Bills in March fixed some short-term headaches, while creating a big-play void in the Vikings offense.
