When you think about a huge playoff moment for the Minnesota Vikings that came against the New Orleans Saints… one play comes to mind.

Stefon Diggs is the author of the Minneapolis Miracle and that is totally fine. But we forget about another play that involved the exact same variables. In fact I’d argue the play we forget about was more impressive.

Two years after the miracle in question the Vikings were visiting the Saints in the Superdome and won the game on a walk-off touchdown that Kirk Cousins threw to Kyle Rudolph. We caught up with the latter while on Radio Row at the Super Bowl and asked him all about it.

Rudolph was gracious in all of the understandable ways. He noted that he had an incredible NFL career and that moments like that obviously stand out above the rest.

Kyle also discussed the work that he is doing with Good Sports to ensure that today’s youth is all able to enjoy the same type of sporting moments that we all love so much.
