Another Saints free agent is off the market. The Minnesota Vikings are signing a former Saints running back just in time for their preseason finale:

On Monday evening, NFL insider Mike Garafolo reported that the Minnesota Vikings are signing running back Xazavian Valladay. Valladay was most recently with the Saints and originally came into the NFL as an undrafted free agent of the Texans.

Here are the best and worst from the PFF grades for the Vikings' loss to the Patriots. Nick Vannett 89.6 Henry Byrd 75.1 Blake Brandel 72.7 Ta Felton 70.6 Michael Gonzalez 70.2 Lucky Jackson 38.5

And that there was no place I’d rather be yesterday than inside on a beautiful Saturday afternoon watching a meaningless football game between the New England Patriots and Minnesota Vikings goes a long way toward how excited I am for this coming NFL season.

The preseason is flying by and we now have just one more game to go before the season gets underway. The Patriots had a dominant performance in the first preseason game as they blew out the Commanders.
