Vikings to honor Hall of Fame coach Bud Grant throughout 2023 season

Vikings co-owner Mark Wilf announced Tuesday that the team will wear its classic uniforms with a featured "Bud" signature patch for the Sept. 10 home opener against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, in honor of the late Bud Grant and his impact on the franchise across 18 years as head coach.

Additionally, Wilf alluded to game-day opportunities for Vikings fans to uplift Grant's memory that will be revealed as the home opener nears.

"As an organization, we want to find meaningful ways to honor Bud — both at the time of his passing and throughout the season, and really allow our fans to be involved," Wilf said.
