Impressive to get both a 4 game PED and a 4 game substance abuse suspension at the same time.

KRIS BOYD News broke Tuesday afternoon that second-year corner Holton Hill had been suspended an additional four games for violating the league’s substance abuse policy. This came on top of his existing four-game suspension for performance enhancing drug use. Hill, the likely No. 5 corner on the roster, is now out for half the season, opening the door for fellow Texas Longhorn Kris Boyd. If the rookie seventh-round pick can take to Mike Zimmer’s coaching, he’ll have a shot to duplicate what Hill did by contributing important reps as a rookie. He stood out in OTAs and mini-camp as a favorite of Zimmer’s and peaked on June 12 when he intercepted two passes at mini-camp. https://zonecoverage.com/2019/vikings/five-players-with-something-to-prove-at-rookie-training-camp/

He wants smart, high character, tough-minded [players]; physical football team.” #Vikings What's cool for Hill is that doesn't say Zim wants clean players. Although 'smart' could be tossed around as more of an indirect, technicality thing.

In other news, another lawsuit against Peterson. Seems to be because in this one some person (his attorney?) says he was taken advantage of by others. He should have bought that camel and rented it out.

Bill Johanesen -> RE: General Vikes Talk (7/23/2019 6:07:52 PM)
Wondering if the anti-Waynes crowd who wanted him gone in part because we can 'weather' a four-game Hill suspension will be around? Hill had a problem with substances before the NFL. Hill had a problem with substances in the NFL. But yeah, we can count on him. Go Boyd!

Hahaha Not anti- Waynes at all, when you have the worst OLine in football you look for options. We’ll see, but at this moment I’m happy we have Waynes...

ratoppenheimer -> RE: General Vikes Talk (7/24/2019 2:34:51 AM)
. . imo we should extend waynes immediately...5yrs/$55m...$20m signing bonus...rhodes is gone after 2020.... 2019 - $5m 2020 - $5m 2021 - $15m 2022 - $15m 2023 - $15m

Trading Waynes was an option worth considering.

Bruce Johnson -> RE: General Vikes Talk (7/24/2019 3:17:11 PM)
Here's more information. Apparently the Vikings are considering a second corner, as well, but I like what I see with the Scandrick selection. https://thevikingage.com/2019/07/24/report-minnesota-vikings-interest-veteran-corner/

Bruce Johnson -> RE: General Vikes Talk (7/24/2019 3:28:21 PM)
The Vikings coaching staff likes these first few days w only rookies & select vets so that they can really slow things down and point things out before veterans report and it speeds up fast. #afternoonsesh #VikingsCamp https://twitter.com/i/status/1154109659869077506 (There's a short video in it.)

Bruce Johnson -> RE: General Vikes Talk (7/24/2019 3:30:14 PM)
This writer suggests that the Vikings say goodbye to Hill. I'm kind of on board with that, but not strongly. I will support whatever the Vikings decide, but my bet is that they part ways. https://thevikingage.com/2019/07/24/zero-reason-minnesota-vikings-keep-hill/

Sounds like #Vikings rookie WR Dillon Mitchell had an impressive day during the team’s first practice yesterday (Adam Patrick on Twitter)

A lot of my friends did, too, Rat. But when they had a chance to go to work at the stamping plant or the mill, they quit smoking pot, because their employment required them to test negative. Hill put himself in this situation, knowing that his positive test could shelve him for a while.

Bruce Johnson -> RE: General Vikes Talk (7/24/2019 6:32:43 PM)
I get drug tested every year and that doesn't include my randoms. My workplace has zero tolerance. Once and you are done. Hill has flunked at least two tests, but I think it might be more than that. Whatever. I'm just disappointed. It's so stupid.
