It is unclear whether the Minnesota Vikings will dress only two halfbacks, RBs Toby Gerhart and Lorenzo Booker, for the Week 17 game against the Chicago Bears. They might promote RB Caleb King from the practice squad. "You never know when it's your time," King said Friday, Dec. 30. "Luckily, I did follow (the veterans). I know the playbook, so if they throw me in, I'm going to be ready." RB Jordan Todman was signed this week off the practice squad of the San Diego Chargers, but it's unlikely he'll be up to speed with the team's playbook to contribute.

Minnesota Vikings special teams coordinator Mike Priefer said Friday, Nov. 11, that he prefers to stick with WR Percy Harvin (rib) on kickoff returns when healthy, despite the fact RB Lorenzo Booker and CB Marcus Sherels have shown well at times. Each of the three players have kick returns of at least 68 yards this season.

Minnesota Vikings QB Christian Ponder had hoped to bring together a larger group of teammates for workouts this week, but several veterans who had committed to attend didn't show up as expected Wednesday, June 1. WRs Sidney Rice, Percy Harvin and Bernard Berrian, RB Lorenzo Booker and TE Visanthe Shiancoe had been expected to join a group of seven players who worked out at the IMG Madden Football Academy, but none showed up, citing a variety of excuses. "I thought it would be hard and probably should have had better planning," Ponder said of scheduling the informal minicamp right after the Memorial Day weekend. "We'll definitely do it again and hopefully a bunch more guys will show up ... I talked to a few guys, some other guys we couldn't get a hold of ... We got some good work in. To be around some of the guys was good for me."

Philadelphia Eagles head coach Andy Reid said the team has to wait to see how RBs Lorenzo Booker and LeSean McCoy (thumb) progress before the team alters their approach with how they use RB Brian Westbrook (ankle) in 2009. "If the other guys are capable of getting in there and doing their thing, then that's what we'll do. We'll rotate them in there," Reid said.

Reid would not say that Booker is ahead of rookie RB LeSean McCoy (thumb) on the depth chart, though. He said the backs have been rotating in and they are trying to mix them in to make sure they get the same number of reps.

Jeff McLane, of The Philadelphia Inquirer, reports Philadelphia Eagles backup RB Lorenzo Booker said he believes he is the team's No. 2 running back behind starter Brian Westbrook. That, however, doesn't jive with what head coach Andy Reid said earlier in May when he noted rookie RB LeSean McCoy had that role. "For me to start sweating, you've got to take my job," Booker said. "Come take my job. If you can take it, then take it. We'll see. That's what the whole point of camp and all that is."

WRs Hank Baskett, Greg Lewis and Jason Avant will rotate at the other receiver positions in Week 1.

Philadelphia Eagles RB Lorenzo Booker said catching the football is definitely a strength he brings to the Eagles. He said he loves catching it out of the backfield as much as he loves running with it. He said last year he wanted to line up more in the slot so he could show he was capable of doing that, too. He is hopeful he will be given the same chance with the Eagles. He noted he does not have much experience in returning kicks or punts. He plans on being with the Eagles for their upcoming minicamp.
