A family will be watching the Vikings tonight in the DC area. A mother, a father and a brother. Why this team has meant as much as it has to the Jacksons over what has been the hardest five months of their lives 🕊️: nytimes.com/athletic/60536…
J.J. McCarthy just hit Jordan Addison on the go in 7-on-7. Wide open TD. Earned some noise from teammates.

hey Alec, is the field house air conditioned? The times I've been in there it was pretty warm and humid
J.J. McCarthy spoke this afternoon. Could tell he's ready to get going, to compete. Said it was important to him to orchestrate some of the throwing sessions with teammates the last few weeks. First Vikings practice in less than an hour.

Vikings HC Kevin O'Connell says Will Fries "is cleared and ready to go." Will have to ramp up but expect him to be pretty integrated.
Vikings HC Kevin O'Connell highlighted T Christian Darrisaw, OG Will Fries, WR Rondale Moore for work they've done this offseason. Each on different plan, but none on PUP.
Vikings HC Kevin O'Connell says TE Gavin Bartholomew has a low-back injury and Edge Chaz Chambliss has a right foot injury. Only two on the PUP to start.

What’s J.J. McCarthy’s mindset with all eyes on him as Vikings training camp dawns? Glad you asked. Some perspective from the folks who know him best: nytimes.com/athletic/65022…
It's time. Training camp is upon us. And J.J. McCarthy is set to attempt to try to take the Vikings where no Minnesota QB has before him. @alec_lewis goes inside the mind of the second-year signal-caller. nytimes.com/athletic/65022…
Some #Vikings roster things as we get going here: TE Gavin Bartholomew and OLB Chaz Chambliss have been placed on Active/PUP. They can participate in activities, just not practice. Should get full updates mañana.
