2. An update on special teams
Although Wednesday's session ran for a little more than an hour, the Vikings were still able to get in some special teams work.
The highlight came on the final play of practice, as kicker Greg Joseph nailed a 50-yard attempt. It was his lone field goal try in a team drill Wednesday. Andrew DePaola was the long snapper with Britton Colquitt holding.
Ameer Abdullah, K.J. Osborn, Chad Beebe, Kene Nwangwu, Bisi Johnson and Ihmir Smith-Marsette each took punt return reps in the early portion of practice.
Abdullah and Osborn each took a rep at punt returner in team drills, with both catching the punt cleanly and gaining a few yards on their respective returns.
