2025 NFL mock draft: Full three-round mock draft predictions
9. Minnesota Vikings: Travis Hunter, CB/WR, Colorado. The Minnesota Vikings are a retooling team right now, but they are in a unique position compared to others who are moving on from high-profile franchise quarterbacks. The Vikings have an established and very good coaching staff. They have a pretty strong roster outside of that change at quarterback. The high variance of outcomes with either Sam Darnold or JJ McCarthy (or a combination of the two this season) puts this team in the “impossible to project” category.
Review: ENGLISH at Guthrie Theater

Twins put Correa on injured list for treatment of plantar fasciitis, sit Paddack with forearm strain
MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — The Minnesota Twins placed All-Star shortstop Carlos Correa on the injured list on Saturday for treatment of plantar fasciitis in his right foot, giving him the precautionary rest he didn’t get last season for the same condition in the other foot. Starting pitcher Chris Paddack also landed on the injured list with a right forearm strain before the game against Milwaukee, after he experienced tightness during the break. Utility player Austin Martin (right oblique strain) was reinstated from the IL and second baseman Edouard Julien was recalled from Triple-A St. Paul to fill the roster spots, but the five-day break didn’t give the banged-up Twins much of a lift. Infielders Royce Lewis (strained right groin) and Jose Miranda (strained lower back) and backup Kyle Farmer (strained right shoulder) remained on the IL, among other players who’ve been on longer-term timetables. Correa was held out of the All-Star Game on Tuesday because of the condition he largely played through in his left foot last season. This version appears to be less severe, but he had a platelet-rich plasma injection during the break that will keep him in a walking boot for a couple of days.

Minnesota has gone more than 60 years without an appearance in the Rose Bowl, the longest drought of any school which was in the Big Ten in the early 1960s. However, through the early 1960s, Minnesota was a top program. The Gophers were particularly great in their dynastic period from 1934 through 1941....
