Vikings cut veteran safety Carter, 11 others

[The_Philster]

Veteran safety Tyrone Carter was among the 12 players cut by the Minnesota Vikings.

Carter, a former Minnesota Gophers All-American, was drafted by the Vikings in 2000 after breaking the Division I-A record for tackles by a defensive back.

He played three years in Minnesota and spent last season with the New York Jets, where he started the final 10 games. He re-signed with the Vikings after being cut by the Jets in March.

Other players released were long snapper Brody Liddiard; wide receivers Ben Nelson, Ryan Hoag and Lane Danielsen; cornerback Derek Ross; running back Butchie Wallace; safety Oliver Celestin; cornerback Horace Willis; cornerback Jermaine Mays; center Billy Conaty; and guard Anthony Herrera....more

that is one thing i can say.. when the bills let someone go, it is rare that they go on to be anything anywhere else..

It was Gary, and you're right.. Carter sounds like an interesting pickup, even though I highly doubt we'll do it.

It was Gary,

I think Tatonka was referring to Anthony Gray
