MINNEAPOLIS (WCCO) — Minnesota Vikings tight end Kyle Rudolph said a “member of the media” tricked him into giving his game-worn gloves away for charity – but they ended up being sold on eBay.
There’s a positive ending to the story, however.
On Wednesday, Rudolph tweeted his disappointment, explaining that the locker room was a “zoo” after the team’s win over the Saints in the Wild Card round of the playoffs. Rudolph caught the game-winning touchdown.
Rudolph said he gave his gloves – even signing them – to the media member, who said he would use them for a charity benefit.
