Hey, everybody, welcome to another episode of Purple Insider, Matthew Collar here.

And I would like to thank the Green Bay Packers for giving us something to talk about while we wait for mini camp.

Tomorrow, the Vikings will start their three-day three day mini camp i will be there as always

and we'll have recap some of them from out here some of them from back here as we break down

what j j mccarthy looks like at minicamp how much progress has he made and then we'll try

to take away whatever else we could take away from it where guys are

lining up how guys are being used are any wide receivers popping all that great mini camp stuff

from the past and then my understanding i think is that brian flores is going to talk and then

matt daniels west phillips so i'll be very curious to hear from Brian Flores. I don't believe that we have spoken

with him since the Vikings added so much talent to their defense. There's a new kickoff. And then

we'll get the offensive coordinators look at what he's seen from McCarthy, the receivers. So just

even the podiums alone should have a lot to take away and then the practices as well.

They kick up a little bit of a notch during minicamp. The OTA practices, there were maybe

20, 25 throws that we could actually work with over the two practices we saw. But normally in

mini camp, more has been installed over the last couple weeks of OTAs

and then we get access for all three practices so we get to see how things progress

and then off we go.

So tonight though, we have a little bit of time and space to talk about Jai Year Alexander

who was released today by the Green Bay Packers.

And it is really a Vikings motif over their history to take a disgruntled packer or a

former packer and make them a Minnesota Viking.

We've seen it many times, you know, you're Greg Jennings, your Aaron Jones over the years.
