Notebook: Jalyn Holmes, Vikings Rookies Adjust to New Home

EAGAN, Minn. — Jalyn Holmes seems to be feeling comfortable in the Vikings new home.

Holmes, the other seven members of his draft class, 17 undrafted free agents, 31 rookies invited on a tryout basis and eight young players who spent part of 2017 with Minnesota hit the brilliant green (Kentucky Bluegrass sod from a farm in Colorado) practice fields Friday for the first time at Twin Cities Orthopedics Performance Center.

Following a morning walk-through session, Holmes participated in a media session with reporters, relieving the joy that occurred when he was selected last Saturday with the second selection of the fourth round and 102nd overall pick.
