MINNEAPOLIS (WCCO) – It is the end of an era for some Minnesota Vikings fans.
On Tuesday at the Vikings’ practice facility in Eden Prairie, linebacker Chad Greenway announced he is retiring.
Greenway began his career playing college football as a Hawkeye at University of Iowa. He was selected as the 17th draft pick in 2006 for the Vikings, and has played all of his 11 seasons with the Minnesota team.
