The Vikings closed out the spring by concluding the three-day mandatory minicamp with Thursday’s practice.
An alumni barbecue afterward had many former players at Winter Park ranging from recently retired linebacker Chad Greenway to Hall of Fame defensive tackle John Randle.
On the field, the offense pushed back Thursday after the defense had taken control much of the spring. Second-year receiver Laquon Treadwell concluded one red-zone session with a leaping grab of a Sam Bradford pass over Trae Waynes for a touchdown in the corner of the end zone.
It’s a good sign for Treadwell, who was hampered by injuries longer than the Vikings anticipated as a rookie.
