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

0:10.0

And I have to start the show by saying that something that I said on last night's stream,

0:17.0

a guess of mine turned out to be wrong, that I had figured that the Vikings would have an intense practice today because they have a preseason game coming up on Friday and they didn't have a very intense practice on Monday.

0:35.2

So I thought, okay, well, they're going to get the pads out and back to work.
