Some Friday morning rise and grind. From the opening kickoff, Centennial Cougar Football made it count. 42-0 win over Coon Rapids for the defending 6A champs. KSTPSports

#Vikings did try to re-sign Hall. Seattle liked him pre-draft and tried to acquire him this offseason. Clear No. 3 QB with Seahawks.

Ty Chandler will have more on his plate with the #Vikings this season. He's RB2 behind Aaron Jones and has been named their primary kick returner. He seemed hesitant talking about kick returning, I'm trying to figure out why.

Just another day in the Minneapolis/St. Paul local TV sports market. Many teams, different faces, we're busy.

I just wanted to see if the Ravens were really going for 2. Chiefs win and are 1 and toe.

LB Ivan Pace Jr. told me in the #Vikings locker room that LB Blake Cashman will have the green dot on defense for Sunday's game at NYG.

The connection with Edina's Mason West and Meyer Swinney will be a problem for many teams this season. 4 touchdowns tonight. Edina-35 Eden Praire-14 Mason West ‘26 Meyer Swinney Edina Hornets Football KSTPSports

Dallas Turner is one of the first #Vikings on the field. The rookie is getting in the zone ahead of his NFL debut.

35 year old Harrison Smith is about to enter his 13th season in the NFL, all with Minnesota.

Wouldn’t be crazy if you’re looking at the top WR duo in the league this season.

Heading for the exits! Andrew Van Ginkel’s pick-6 put the Vikings up 28-6 late in the 3rd. It also sent some people home.

Vikings rookie Dallas Turner reflecting on his NFL debut today. Not a terrible state line: 3 tackles and a sack.

If you've ever been around Andrew Van Ginkel, you know he won't give much self-praise for the plays he makes. I asked him about housing a pick-6 in 1.16 seconds today in the #Vikings 28-6 win over the Giants. He said he was in the right place at the right time. 😂

Just 4 receptions for 59 yards for Justin Jefferson today in win over the Giants. But he had a TD and a deep ball in double coverage from Sam Darnold, and wants his QB to keep having confidence in that throw. "Even when I'm doubled, I'm still open."

#MNTwins CF Byron Buxton (hip) is sprinting again, will face live pitching pretty soon. Some arms from A-Cedar Rapids are in town to throw live BP to Buxton + others rehabbing. Buck was supposed to rejoin the Twins Fri. in K.C., but had a setback while playing for Saints Wed.
