‘I Feel For These Guys’: Fmr. Viking Ben Leber Talks NFL Shutdown, St. Jude’s Fundraiser

MINNEAPOLIS (WCCO) — It’s a different kind of game, and it’s a big one given our current circumstances.

WCCO caught up with former Minnesota Vikings linebacker Ben Leber for some football conversation, and for some thoughts on a project that consumes him this time of year — one that’s had to adjust on the fly.

The Vikings are bringing in 15 draft picks. That’s exciting, but with little off-season preparation, is that a good thing? Or a daunting challenge to get them ready?

“It’s going to be difficult to see who they have to cut down as far as getting the roster size into camp, but, you know, I feel for these guys,” Leber said.
