Booty shows promise in Vikings debut

Vikings Notebook — Sunday

By Chad Courrier
Free Press Staff Writer

Other injured players from Friday’s game are considered day-to-day, though safety Michael Boulware (concussion), fullback Naufahu Tahi (sternum), lineman Drew Radovich (shoulder), defensive lineman Kenderick Allen (wrist) and offensive lineman Marcus Johnson (knee) all missed practice Sunday. Cornerback Marcus McCauley and tight end Garrett Mills resumed practice after missing most of last week.

Darn the kicker

Rookie Darius Reynaud knows the importance of making a big play, and a 53-yard kickoff return in the first half of Friday’s game was just that. The only problem was that the kicker prevented what could have been a touchdown.

“I got it when I got back to the sidelines from the other players,” Reynaud said. “I could’ve jerked the kicker, but knowing the speed of the game I didn’t want to slow down and have the guys catch me from behind. I’ll know what to do next time.”

Reynaud, a receiver from West Virginia, had three kick returns for 109 yards and one catch for 13 yards against Seattle.

“Knowing that I came in after not being drafted, I got a point to prove to everybody to show them that they made a big mistake by not picking me up,” Reynaud said. “Now I’m with the Minnesota Vikings, and I’m going to make the best of it.”
