While there are four preseason games and several practices between now and week 1 of the NFL regular season, the depth chart is slowly starting to take shape for the Minnesota Vikings.

Here are some of the highlights of the Thursday, July 31 afternoon practice for the Minnesota Vikings during their 2014 training camp at MSU Mankato.

The Minnesota Vikings are wrapping up their first full week of training camp under new head coach Mike Zimmer, and optimism among players and fans continues to run high.

Going into last night's NFL Draft, Teddy Bridgewater was one of the top quarterback prospects. Before he hears his name called by the Minnesota Vikings as pick #32 last night, the former Louisville star had a surprise for his mom.

As Rick Spielman has done in previous drafts, the Vikings traded with the Seattle Seahwaks to get pick number 32, the final pick of the first round of the 2014 NFL Draft. With that pick, they addressed their need at quarterback.

Teddy Bridgewater may have a name you think sounds familiar. He is the QB for Louisville. He is one of the top QB in the upcoming NFL draft. When he was in the third grade, he told his Mama he would buy her a pink Escalade. Now that he is on the verge of making it, he followed through on that promise.
