George Paton told @peter_king "quarterbacks are available more than franchise corners every year, at least the last couple of years” when talking about the many reasons the Broncos drafted Patrick Surtain II over a QB in the first round.

“He doesn’t care what people say, how people feel about him, what a coach says about him, what a media member says about him… He’s going to go out there and be the same guy ever single day… He’s pushed me to be a better person.”

Minnesota Vikings
· 1h
The #Vikings are again partnering with the State of Minnesota in the fight against COVID-19, this time hosting walk-up vaccinations outside @usbankstadium before the team's 2 home preseason games.

Maybe set up in the locker room. Near the Plexiglas.

Zimmer has previously said starters should play a decent amount Aug. 21 vs Indy. He added today that Danielle Hunter will probably "get some plays" this preseason.

Vikings' top draft picks Christian Darrisaw and Kellen Mond likely won't play in Saturday's preseason opener vs Denver, per Mike Zimmer.

Darrisaw has yet to ramp up past individual drills in practices. Mond just returned from a COVID case and 10-day quarantine.

#Vikings special teams coordinator Ryan Ficken said on KFAN that Dede Westbrook “looks like a natural” returning punts and he’s excited to get him back. Westbrook has been rehabbing an October ACL surgery

Christian Darrisaw is the only Vikings player unaccounted for at practice. Danielle Hunter, Justin Jefferson and Nate Stanley are here but not in pads.

Based on the fact that Thielen is also a selfish player who won't get vaccinated, he is right that Cousins has had an impact on him, pretty sad he considers that to be a "better person."   Really thought Thielen and Smith were better than that, but it turns out they are just as moronic.  Best not to know much about these guys personally and just watch the games, cause the more you know about some of them the harder it is to root for them.

#Vikings coach Mike Zimmer talked today about Teddy Bridgewater: "He texted me about a month ago maybe about a month it was and told me he just had a baby... He’s always been a real steady kid that doesn’t get flustered. … He understands situational football really well."

Mike Zimmer on the similarities between himself and Vic Fangio: “We’re both old, I know that. ... He’s pretty dry; I’m pretty dry, as well. Boring, I guess you could say.”

Punt drills are a disaster today! Lots of drops. Think I saw one from every suitor but Dede Westbrook

Looks like no Christian Darrisaw, Justin Jefferson, Danielle Hunter or Nate Stanley for the #Vikings today. Presumably just a day off for Hunter. Good opportunity for DJ Wonnum and other Vikings DEs to go against Broncos LT Garrett Bolles.
