Vikings Training Camp Notes

August 2, 2009 | Filed underVikings | Posted by

Here are some notes I’ve gathered thus far for Minnesota Vikings’ Training Camp 2009:

- Receiver Percy Harvin had a very good ‘first’ training camp.  He was used at returning kicks as well as the slot position with the first-team offense.

- Tackle Ryan Cook got some snaps at center, the position he played in college.  Childress plans on using him at all positions on the line.  (primary back-up?)

- Quarterback Tarvaris Jackson did not participate today, but might return to the field tomorrow.  He has a sprained MCL on his left knee.  He is currently wearing a knee brace.

- Quarterback John David Booty is getting more reps with Jackson sitting out today’s sessions.  Quarterback Sage Rosenfels got most of the opportunities with the first team offense.

- Tight end Visanthe Shiancoe looks really good.  He is ready for an even better year than last year’s career season.

- Linebackers’ Heath Farwell and EJ Henderson are moving around the field very well.  They look to be at or close to 100% ready to play.
