3 years agoMinnesota Vikings quarterback Kellen Mond has barely been able to practice during training camp after being placed on the COVID list and it showed in his first preseason game. Head coach Mike Zimmer didn't mince words, telling reporters, "He was OK. I didn't like when tried to shovel pass the ball to whoever it was on the one third-down play. He used his legs a couple of times. He just has to get moving a little bit quicker. Everything is in slow motion with him, and he's going to have to improve that.....Does (Kellen Mond) take a little too much time reading sometimes? Maybe. But a lot of it is processing....I can tell he needs playing time." Mond currently is the QB3 on the roster but backup quarterback Jake Browning did not play well either. Mond ascend to backup by preseason's end.--Joey C - RotoBaller
