When the Minnesota Vikings drafted Pittsburgh tackle Brian O’Neill in the second round of April’s draft, many thought that the former tight end was going to be a project and would have to wait a year before having any noticeable impact on the purple. However, it appears that he’s taking all the necessary steps to inject himself into the conversation at the starting right tackle spot this season.
According to Courtney Cronin of ESPN, the Vikings are trying to get O’Neill to put on weight before the start of Training Camp in about six weeks.
