Brandon Fusco is unaccustomed to being a midseason newsmaker, never mind a May headliner. But there was the Vikings guard Wednesday holding court about his new job in Minnesota's shifting offensive line.
Fusco debuted at left guard during this week's organized team activities at Winter Park, a position switch that solves one offseason riddle while creating new intrigue at right guard. He paired with left tackle Matt Kalil to help protect quarterback Teddy Bridgewater's blind side as each lineman seeks redemption from a disappointing 2014 season.
Fusco's season was cut short after only three games because of a torn pectoral muscle that required surgery, while Kalil muddled through injuries and inconsistencies that raised questions about his viability as a starter.
