The Viking Age’s Adam Patrick and Vikings Territory’s Tyler Haag talk about the latest news from Minnesota Vikings training camp on this week’s show.

A week into this year’s training camp for the Minnesota Vikings and people are already getting worried about the status of the offensive line for the regular season.

In the last two weeks, the Vikings have dealt with the sudden passing of Tony Sparano, center Pat Elflein being place on the PUP list, tackle Rashod Hill fighting a stomach illness, and guard Mike Remmers injuring his ankle.

The offensive line was already a position group that worried Minnesota’s fans for 2018 and the recent events that have taken place have only heightened their stress levels.

On this week’s Bleeding Purple Podcast, Tyler and I talk about the team’s offensive line issues and a number of other Vikings-related topics including…

  • Minnesota now has co-offensive line coaches
  • The Vikings almost reunited with Mike Tice
  • Pat Elflein had two surgeries this offseason
  • Stacy Coley misses a bunch of camp practice
  • Where in the world is Kendall Wright?
  • Mike Zimmer breaks up a fight!
  • Should we still worry about Dalvin Cook?
  • Holton Hill getting tips from Xavier Rhodes
  • Cornerback battle is heating up
  • Settle down on Anthony Barr playing on the defensive line
  • Stefon Diggs deserves all the money he can get
  • Randy Moss getting inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame
  • Preparing for referees getting flag-happy in the preseason
  • Battles to keep an eye on for the rest of Vikings camp
  • Tyler reveals when he will be heading to training camp
