EDEN PRAIRIE, Minn. — The Vikings wrapped up what Head Coach Mike Zimmer described as a “very, very productive offseason” Thursday, capping the third and final day of a mandatory minicamp with a barbecue with alumni, including 2015 Hall of Fame inductee Mick Tinglehoff.
The catered lunch by Lynch BBQ Company of Waucoma, Iowa, offered a chance to revisit the past with current players and coaches excited regarding the future. The Vikings are scheduled to begin training camp July 25, launching the team’s 50th camp at Minnesota State University, Mankato.
Their first time on the field against an opponent will be against Pittsburgh in the Hall of Fame Game on Aug.
