It’s only the first day of padded training camp practices, and Minnesota Vikings star tight end Irv Smith Jr. already has fans holding their breath.
Per the Pioneer Press’ Chris Tomasson, Smith left the practice field early on Monday with a “possible injury,” but it was noted that it didn’t necessarily appear to be anything serious.
The 23-year-old is playing in a contract year after missing all of 2021 with a meniscus injury.
Stay tuned for more updates as they come.
