EDEN PRAIRIE, Minn. (AP) -The Vikings know what running back Albert Young can do when he is running plays for the other team.
In their preseason opener against the Indianapolis Colts, they also got a glimpse of what he is capable of doing for them. He led the team with 58 yards rushing in the 13-3 victory.
The former Iowa standout spent his entire rookie season on the practice squad last year. His main responsibility was running the opponent’s offense for the scout team against the starting defense and he never was active for a game.
This year he is competing with two other running backs for the third-string job behind Adrian Peterson and Chester Taylor.
