Ladainian Tomlinson will visit with the Minnesota Vikings on Thursday about filling the void left by the recently departed Chester Taylor, according to Jim Trotter of Sports Illustrated.
LaDainian Tomlinson To Meet With Vikings On Thursday
The former NFL MVP spent the first nine years of his career with the San Diego Chargers, where he rushed for 12,490 yards and 138 touchdowns.
Tomlinson, who will be 31 years old when the season begins, would serve as a back-up to Minnesota’s Pro-Bowl running back Adrian Peterson.
Tomlinson’s versatility and sure-handedness would help alleviate two of the biggest holes in Peterson’s game; his propensity to fumble, and his inability to catch the ball out of the backfield.
