Free agent RB LaDainian Tomlinson will visit with the Vikings on Thursday and if a contract can be worked out, he could be sharing a backfield with Adrian Peterson, according to Judd Zulgad of the Minneapolis Star-Tribune.
Vikings Could Be Nearing Deal With LaDainian Tomlinson
During his visit, the two sides are expected to talk money and playing time. It’s unclear exactly what kind of contract LT is looking for but rest assured he won’t be getting starter money in Minnesota.
While Tomlinson would like to remain a starter, that job might not be available to him — at least with a competitive team. Tomlinson never has won a Super Bowl ring and, much like with Brett Favre this past season, he could be attracted by the opportunity to join a franchise that is expected to make another run at the title in 2010.
LT looks to essentially replace RB Chester Taylor who bolted in free agency for the Bears.
