Vikings Agree to Terms with Lewis but still are holding out for Brett Farve Vikings News

The Minnesota Vikings roster will retain Wide Receiver Greg Lewis after negotiations settled term's of Lewis' contract. Greg Lewis was supposed to go into unrestricted free agency after this season, however the Vikings Wide Receiver who had previously played with the Eagles and the Patriots agreed to a 1-year Vikings Contract.

This past season, Lewis made a name for himself on the Minnesota Vikings roster after catching a last-second touchdown pass from Brett Farve that let the Vikings beat San Francisco. In whole, Greg Lewis played in 13 Minnesota Vikings games, caught 8 passes for 96 yards and played on the special teams.

Lewis was on a list of 5 Vikings Players who could go into free agency next season. The remaining 4: defensive tackle Jimmy Kennedy, cornerback Benny Sapp, offensive lineman Artis Hicks, and running back Chester Taylor are all still working out deals with the Minnesota Vikings.

The player who always seems to be in question when it comes to his status on the Minnesota Vikings roster, Brett Farve, has yet to make any announcements about his plans for next season. With the rumor mill spitting out everything from he is going to keep playing, to he is going to coach, to he is going to buy an island and move away forever at this point it is really anyone's guess. The only thing for sure is that if the summer Brett Farve rumors fly as fast as they did last summer, Minnesota Vikings Tickets will only continue to become more and more expensive...
