It might not be a game quite yet, but we’re certainly getting closer. No pads, no big hits. But it’s still real, live football with a real, live, full roster.
I’m not sure there could have been a more picturesque day to make my debut at TCO Performance Center in Eagan. Highs in the upper 70’s and plenty of sunshine was an idyllic backdrop for Saturday’s practice. The new facilities are truly stunning; the Vikings have carved out a state-of-the-art campus for themselves in the southeast suburbs. I’ll be sharing more about the facilities as the week progresses, but first things first—the football.
