Vikings' Danielle Hunter reveals sack secret: It's all about the hands

There's a good reason Danielle Hunter's hands are always moving, always practicing, always rehearsing the same fundamental techniques whether the big man is training in the offseason, warming up on the sideline with an assistant coach or, heck, just walking past a mailbox on an off day.

"Pass rushing is all about using your hands," said the Vikings edge rusher. "I never get one of those freebie sacks. I'm a technician so I've constantly worked my hands. Do it day in and day out, it becomes natural. Like breathing."

The Vikings are 0-2, but Hunter is breathing and playing quite well so far in Brian Flores' new defense.
