Welcome to Mankato

The Vikings arrived on Thursday and will hit the practice field for the first time on Friday morning. Here are links to The Free Press coverage of reporting day:

This is the first training camp for coach Mike Zimmer as head coach, but he has plenty of experience to draw from when he put together his practice plans.

Matt Cassel is the No. 1 quarterback going into camp, but he's not necessarily the Week 1 starter.  That and more in a reporting day notebook.

The Associated Press tackles the Mike Priefer situation after the Vikings brought out all of the key players (minus Chris Kluwe, of course) to talk about the special teams coach's suspension.

Chad Courrier doesn't believe in distractions and opines that NFL teams (and others in the media) shouldn't either.

Fans showed up early in hopes of being the first to get autographs.
