Purple Rumor Mill: Supporting Odell Beckham, Kyle Rudolph and CLE

Vikings Rumor Mill, October 22

in Viking Territory purple rumor mill is a record for two days each week. All rumors this week are lassoed into his two locations (articles) on Saturday and Sunday for review. Today is the October 22nd issue.

Remember – Rumors rumorWhat I read over the weekend in these pieces is what the world is talking about in relation to the Vikings, not necessarily an item that bears fruit.

rumor: The Vikings should or will sign Odell Beckham Jr.

this rumor — or idea, really — a fan-driven ordeal. Beckham is a free agent and is expected to sign with a competing team for a November return, and as the Vikings unexpectedly put him 5-1, head his coach Kevin O’Connell. worked with Beckham in Tinseltown and has many of his LSU alumni in Minnesota.

However, several factors prevent this theory from becoming a reality.

1. The Vikings have the fewest salary cap dollars available in the NFL.
2. The team has a more pressing roster need if there is any movement.
3. Vegas isn’t even acknowledging that Vikings are a distant contender for Beckham.

It’s fun to dream about, but a move from Beckham to the Vikings is a long shot.

rumor: Kyle Rudolph is interested in “going home”.

This is much more real than her relationship with Odell Beckham.

the source says viking territory Rudolph is somewhat disillusioned with his role at Tampa Bay.In 2022, the Buccaneers’ offense targeted Rudolph twice. His TE of the former Vikings was a healthy wound last weekend when Tampa Bay lost to the Pittsburgh Steelers.

The Vikings also have room to add layers to their roster on tight ends, especially if Irv Smith is injured.

Keep an eye out for Rudolph’s reunion, as there’s reportedly a desire from both sides.

Viking Rumored Factory (continuation)

rumor: Minnesota should trade Cleveland for RB Kareem Hunt.

A strange theory indeed, this recommendation came from CBSsports, He explained that the Vikings need to “add more RB depth” as the NFL’s trade deadline approaches.

Brian Dealard CBSsports Recommending Hunt for such trades, he wrote: Hunt is a former NFL rush his champion who has spent the past three-plus seasons sharing the backfield with Nick Chubb. ”

Minnesota has no funds and already employs Dalvin Cook, Alexander Mathison, Kenne Nangwu and Ty Chandler, so this won’t happen. No running back needed.
