Vikings Bring In New Kicker, Add Old Teammate For Depth

EAGAN, Minn. (WCCO) — It’s only Week 3 and the Minnesota Vikings made three moves to change the roster this week.

That’s life in the NFL. One of those new people is actually an old teammate. Another is expected to be the key to the kicking game. WCCO’s Mike Max has more.

For Tom Johnson, it’s like coming home. Except it’s a new home, not Eden Prairie. But it is the same coaching staff.

“I know all the guys here. This is pretty much where pretty much my career started so I think it’s a good fit and it’s only going to get better,” Johnson said.
