Chad Greenway: Vikings and Greenway

chad greenway: From start to finish, Greenway had quite the career, according to Hamilton Spectator. Proudly declaring he's healthy and happy and ready for retirement after 11 seasons with the Minnesota Vikings Greenway turned his time at the podium at a farewell news conference into a 25-minute thank-you to the people who influenced and supported him over the years. NFL players usually don't get to leave the game like Chad Greenway did. Former teammates Jim Kleinsasser and Ben Leber were among those in attendance, along with Vikings greats Carl Eller and Bud Grant. I wish I would've had him when he was younger, said Zimmer, who has been with the Vikings for three seasons. General manager Rick Spielman praised Greenway's exemplary citizenship off the field, and coach Mike Zimmer expressed his appreciation for being able to lean on Greenway's leadership to help sell his message in the locker room.
