Vikings | Garnett On the Rise |
Tue, 02 Oct 2001 17:43:04 -0700
Mike Wells reports for the Pioneer Press Minnesota Vikings DT Winfield Garnett continues to rise up the team's depth chart. In fact, a play he made on Sunday stood out with coach Dennis Green. On a second-and-two play he dragged down Bucs RB Warrick Dunn for a two-yard loss. "No question he's earned himself more minutes," defensive line coach Brian Baker said. He called Sunday his best game yet. Garnett is one of three young tackles making significant strides. Rookie Shawn Worthen and Fred Robbins are the others. The Vikings play at New Orleans, one of three teams to cut him, this weekend. Garnett will have built in motivation for that game.
