EAGAN, Minn. — The spotlight was on Verizon Vikings Training Camp on Wednesday afternoon as NFL Network’s ‘Training Camp Live’ set up shop at Twin Cities Orthopedics Performance Center.
Colleen Wolfe, Tom Pelissero and James Jones stopped by to watch walk-through and practice, and later chatted with various members of the Vikings.
While the focus was on the team going into the 2019 season, Vikings wide receiver Adam Thielen said he prefers Minnesota to be under the radar around the league.
“That’s how this league works. When things are good, everyone wants to say it’s ‘Super Bowl or bust’ like you said,” Thielen said. “But then you have one bad season and miss the playoffs by one game, and all the sudden you’re the worst team in football.
“We’re going to let everyone else talk about it and just come out here and work,” Thielen said. “That’s the mindset we’ve taken so far, and I feel like we’ve made a lot of progress because of that.”
Added Diggs: “Flying under the radar and winning is the best spot to be in.”
