Former Elder High School standout Kyle Rudolph confirmed Tuesday via Twitter that the Minnesota Vikings have released him after 10 NFL seasons - all with Minnesota.
Reactions, including from the Vikings:
Rudolph had 28 catches for 334 yards with one touchdown in 12 games last season for the Vikings. His touchdown came on an impressive, one-handed catch against the Tennessee Titans in September.
Rudolph wrote for theplayerstribune.com that he's so proud of the decade he spent with the Vikings.
Rudolph and his family announced last March they were donating 82,000 meals to Minnesota residents affected by uncertainty related to COVID-19 through Second Harvest Heartland, and encouraging anyone able to join them in supporting the nonprofit to do so.
Last January, thousands of dollars were donated to Kyle Rudolph's End Zone at University of Minnesota Masonic Children's Hospital after Rudolph - who caught the game-winning touchdown in the Vikings' Wild Card Round overtime victory against the New Orleans Saints - expressed his disappointment on Twitter over the eBay sale of the gloves he wore, signed and donated.
