What’s the Impasse with the Vikings Signing Dalton Risner?

It’s been a week since the Vikings hosted former Broncos guard Dalton Risner for a visit. That visit ended without an offer extended by the Vikings, and local Vikings beat writer Darren Wolfson reported that there hasn’t been any movement from the Vikings to acquire Risner since then.

The Vikings could clearly benefit from bringing in a veteran guard that has posted better numbers in pass protection than either Ezra Cleveland or Ed Ingram, but there appears to be some impediment to an offer being extended and a deal getting done.

The issue regarding Risner is unclear, at least outside of the league’s inner circles.
