Vikings attend workout for international prospects

Back in 2016, the Minnesota Vikings made German football star Moritz Böhringer the first player drafted into the NFL that hadn’t played at a college in North America. Today, they got a look at a group of players from other countries that are hoping to follow his path to the National Football League.

All 32 NFL teams were in attendance on Monday in Tampa Bay, Florida, to watch a group of seven international prospects go through their own Combine in an attempt to impress NFL front offices and scouts. The group included three players from Germany, as well as players from Australia, Brazil, Mexico, and the United Kingdom.
