Tommy Armstrong Trying Out With Vikings As "Kind of a RB"

[HuskerMerc44]

I read that Tommy had a few teams interested in him.

He turned them down cause of his friend Sirles.

Husker Power.

We are a family.

Nice job TA. A safety. He's made a better run so far than I was expecting. I'm rooting for him.

Safety, eh? Going the Scott Frost route.

Tommy is a RB at the next level. That's where he needs to be. The first team that figures this out will have a great player. Yeah he'll never be that dominant, break away, take it to the house on any given play, type of RB, but he's be a solid a dependable player.

This is starting to seem like a make-up/break-up movie.

Wow. They must like what they see from him at his new position. Very cool.

Is he completely healed?

Spielman must really like him

Is he completely healed?

AFAIK he fully participated in their rookie mini-camp a few weeks ago, so that would leave me to believe that he is good to go.

Hey, that's great news. I hope it works out for a long term deal and successful career. He had his limits/issues as a passer, but his athleticism was never in doubt for me.

Why safety? Why not running back? He's fast. He's a tough runner. At 6'1", 220 lbs he's almost an ideal size. So why are teams trying to make him a safety? Why not RB?
