You could almost hear the relief in Tyler Conklin’s voice after being selected by the Vikings in the fifth round of the 2018 NFL Draft.
“Just the opportunity the organization has given me to make my dream come true is a surreal feeling to me right now,” Conklin said. “I’m just excited to be part of this organization and excited to help this organization keep moving forward.”
