Vikings Notes

[Kentis]

Vikings rookie running back Kene Nwangwu could return to practice as soon as Wednesday, a source said. He has missed the required three games on injured reserve after suffering a hyperextended knee in the preseason. Once a player is designated for return off injured reserve, a team has 21 days to activate him. Nwangwu did work on the side last week… Through three games, Pro Football Focus ranks Minnesota’s Oli Udoh tied for 12th among all NFL guards. “There’s no ceiling for him,’’ said center Garrett Bradbury. “He can be as good as he wants to be.’’

Great news on both counts. Kene will add the kind of speed to the backfield we haven't seen since Michael Bennett.

And there's 64 starting guards. If Udoh is 12th, what is Cleveland? He's been just as impressive to me. Maybe a little less consistent? But he's flashing big time athleticism on those screens.

Where do you make room for Kene not only on the roster,  but in the RB room?  Whos snaps does he take?  Typically I have not been impressed with Abdullah, but he has filled in pretty good as a 3rd down back.
