Despite the disappointing end to the Minnesota Vikings’ 2018 season
Cheap Harrison Smith Jersey , it appears there’s going to be a Zimmer coaching in January after all.Adam Zimmer, Mike Zimmer’s son and the Vikings’
current linebacker coach, has been named as the head coach for the West Team for
the upcoming East-West Shrine Game. The game will take place in St. Petersburg,
Florida on Saturday, 19 January.This is the second year that a member of the
Vikings’ coaching staff has served in this capacity for the East-West Shrine
Game. Last year, Minnesota defensive coordinator George Edwards served as the
coach of the West team.Adam Zimmer joined the Vikings the same year as his
father did, 2014. Prior to that
Cheap Linval Joseph Jersey , he worked with the Cincinnati Bengals, the Kansas City Chiefs, and the New Orleans Saints.While it’s not nearly as hyped as
the Senior Bowl, the East-West Shrine Game is still an opportunity for players
that might not get as much publicity to raise their draft stock prior to the
Scouting Combine and the rest of the draft process. It will also give Adam
Zimmer an opportunity to do some up-close scouting of a bunch of players at the
same time, which can only be helpful for a Vikings team that’s approaching a
critical offseason.The game will be aired on the NFL Network, so we’ll get an
opportunity to watch what sort of job Zimmer the Younger does for
ourselves.Congratulations to Adam Zimmer on being named a head coach for the
East-West Shrine Game! Yesterday, the Minnesota Vikings waived rookie running
back Roc Thomas in order to make room for Ameer Abdullah on the 53-man roster.
Apparently
Cheap Laquon Treadwell Jersey , Thomas didn’t have to spend a lot of time clearing out his locker.After going unclaimed on waivers, the Vikings have
announced that they have signed Thomas to the practice squad. To make room for
him there, they waived guard Landon Turner, who was just signed last week.The
Vikings didn’t have a running back on the practice squad prior to today, as they
had kept both Thomas and Mike Boone on the 53-man roster since the final
cutdowns were made back in early September. They do now, with the re-addition of
Thomas.Even though he had suffered a hamstring injury in Week 8 that had kept
him out for Week 9, the Vikings did not waive Thomas with any sort of injury
designation. If they had

however, Thomas will be available to be brought up to the active roster, which
could prove helpful if Dalvin Cook continues to deal with injury issues.The
Vikings now have three offensive linemen on their practice squad as well
following Turner’s release. They are tackles Adam Bisnowaty and Storm Norton,
and interior lineman Cornelius Edison.
