Scott Kooistra hopes to resume his NFL career, but it's still soon to say if he'll make it all the way back from a spinal-cord injury. Kooistra underwent surgery on Aug. 23, three days after a collision with Seahawks linebacker Aaron Curry in a preseason game at Seattle left him with what was believed to be an injury to the C-2 vertebra at the top of his neck. The Minnesota Vikings placed him on injured reserve, ending Kooistra's season only days after he'd played his way into a shot to start at... - Inside the Vikings payroll: Joe Berger could be paid like a starter21 February 2012, 2:32 pm
If the Minnesota Vikings move on from veteran guards Steve Hutchinson and Anthony Herrera this offseason, the oldest remaining member of their offensive line would be a leading candidate to replace one of them. Joe Berger received a $125,000 signing bonus on the two-year contract he received in September, according to a source with access to NFL salary data, and incentives could push his compensation in 2012 as high as $1.825 million -- starting-caliber money if he ends up taking such a role. Be... - Pelissero: Even before cuts, Vikings are comfortably under salary cap21 February 2012, 2:06 am
The Minnesota Vikings missed the perfect opportunity for a total roster teardown one year ago. They won't make the same mistake twice -- and they'll be in better position from a payroll perspective to begin the process than many realize. As of Monday, according to a source with access to NFL salary data, the Vikings had about $112.4 million in 2012 cap space committed to 57 players on their roster -- including a little more than $110 million to the "Top 51" who will count against the projected $... - Report: Preliminary agreement reached on who will pay what for stadium17 February 2012, 10:53 pm

Rick Spielman will be attending his sixth NFL Scouting Combine since joining the Minnesota Vikings next week, but this will be the first one where he is in charge. Spielman was promoted from vice president of player personnel to general manager after the Vikings' 3-13 finish in 2011 and is now calling the shots when it comes to the football operations at Winter Park. The Vikings, who have the third-overall pick in the April draft and could have as many as 10 selections, started meetings to focus... - Vikings keep season-ticket prices the same for third year in a row16 February 2012, 8:02 pm
For the third consecutive season, the Minnnesota Vikings won't be raising season-ticket prices. This comes after the team went 3-13 in 2011 and with the franchise no longer having a lease to play in the Metrodome. The Vikings sent out the renewal e-mails Thursday after announcing earlier in the week that they would not be filing notification with the NFL that they planned to attempt to relocate for the 2012 season. The deadline for such notice to be given was Wednesday. The V... - Vikings won't consider bringing back Randy Moss: 'We'll be moving on'16 February 2012, 7:20 pm
The Minnesota Vikings won't be considering a third turn with Randy Moss. "We'll be moving on," general manager Rick Spielman said on Thursday during his annual sitdown with reporters in advance of next week's NFL scouting combine. Moss, 35, declared earlier this week he intends to play in 2012 after sitting out all of last season. It's no surprise the rebuilding Vikings have no interest in the five-time All-Pro, whose tumultuous second stint with the team lasted only four games in 2010. Receiver... - Vikings optimistic financing plan for stadium will be ready in days15 February 2012, 12:21 am
The Minnesota Vikings are optimistic that a financing plan for a new stadium on the site of the Metrodome will be in front of legislators in a matter of days.

"There are still a couple of issues that separate us, but I think by and large the economics of an agreement are there," Bagley said. ... - Cris Carter says Randy Moss 'has more quit in him' than any superstar14 February 2012, 7:30 pm
It's uncertain whether Randy Moss will return to the NFL, but the wide receiver's desire to play football again has managed to create a stir. Cris Carter, who served as Moss' mentor when he entered the NFL in 1998, had some pointed comments about his former Minnesota Viking teammate on ESPN Radio on Tuesday. Appearing on "Mike & Mike in the Morning," Carter did not question what type of shape Moss would be in entering training camp next summer. But the former st... - Jets hire former Vikings assistant Karl Dunbar to coach their d-line13 February 2012, 9:54 pm
Karl Dunbar wasn't out of work for long. Fired as the Minnesota Vikings' defensive line coach after a 3-13 season, Dunbar has been hired to handle the same duties for the New York Jets. Dunbar had spent six seasons with the Vikings and during that time the team gave up the fewest rushing yards in the NFL (8,141) and was sixth in sacks (242). The Vikings were No. 1 in rushing defense from 2006 to '08. That was the first time since the 1970 AFL-NFL merger that a team has ranked No. 1 aga...

With center secured - at least in the team's eyes - the Vikings can turn their att... - NOTES, QUOTES22 February 2012, 6:22 am
