Zimmer: Joe Berger to Fill in While Brandon Fusco is Out

MANKATO, Minn. — Vikings Head Coach Mike Zimmer said Saturday that Brandon Fusco has “looked a lot better” this training camp than last year.

After coming back from an injury in 2014, Fusco was shifted from right guard to left guard for all of 2015. Although he started all 16 games at the position, he wasn’t happy with the results.

“I just never found a groove, maybe it was a confidence issue thing with getting beaten more than usual,” Fusco said.

The signing of free agent Alex Boone has allowed Fusco to move back to right guard, and the sixth-year pro can tell a difference.
