Kyle Rudolph’s 3-yard touchdown was one for the history books on Sunday, but the tight end is more concerned about what the game-clinching score could do for the Vikings near future.
The play-action fake handoff to Matt Asiata, rollout by Sam Bradford and short route to the right gave Minnesota a 25-16 margin with 2:13 remaining, and the Vikings defense completed its fourth-quarter shutout.
The touchdown was Rudolph’s team-leading sixth of the season and 28th of his career, placing him in a tie with Vikings Legend Steve Jordan for the most by a tight end in franchise history.
