For the last couple of months, word has circulated that the Vikings might be interested in signing a veteran wide receiver to do the job Cris Carter was doing prior to last season.
It now looks like Carter will be the guy they sign. VU has been told one of the team objectives heading into training camp is to sign Carter to a ceremonial contract, let him retire as a member of the Vikings and schedule a jersey retirement for the home opener Sept. 14 vs. Chicago.
With the retirement of his No. 80, Carter would become a member of the Ring of Honor, which is a team hall of fame.
