The guy hasn't played ball in eight years and they're going to sign him? What are they going off of, his best Homecoming game?
Any team that would cut the great longsnapper Mike Morris (#68)is doomed.
Nope. They're going off this:
"The 6-foot-3, 290-pound Goliath, the guy who benches 475 pounds, squats 695 pounds...It's one of those gamble decisions, but not a huge one. If the investment pays off, wowza. If not, you wasted a roster spot and some time.... A few weeks after his wrestling career came to an end with a Wrestlemania loss to Goldberg, Lesnar ran the 40-yard dash in 4.7 seconds, a blistering time for a man his size. He has a 10-foot standing broad jump. A 35-inch vertical leap, not to mention the bench and squat numbers. It's the tools of an NFL running back power packed into a gladiator's frame."
As a free-agent? What do they have to lose? If he's a stiff, he gets cut, no big loss. The guy is extremely fast, tough, and strong, which isn't a bad start. He'll probably get cut, but what the hay.
my guess is a publicity stunt to get pre-season interest in the Vikes.
