MANKATO -- Vikings owner Zygi Wilf arrived in Mankato this afternoon and spoke to the entire team on the field following the afternoon walk-through. Wilf then took a few minutes to answer questions from reporters.
Q. What was your role in the decision to waive Bryant McKinnie?
A. "I give a lot of faith to Coach [Leslie] Frazier and to Rick Spielman [the Vikings vice president of player personnel] to make those decisions. It was a football decision on their part. Certainly I was aware of it but I left it up to them. I think our team is in great hands."
Q. Is there a point that you're only willing to put up with so much?
A. "Like I said, [with] the team in Coach Frazier's hands, I'm not going to worry about that. He has my full confidence."
Q. How important is it to get Adrian Peterson a contract extension with him entering the last season of his deal?
A. "I'm not going to comment on contracts. I'll leave it up to Rob [Brzezinski, the Vikings vice president of football operations] and Rick to do that. But we're all very excited to get going here and compete. As you know, that's always been our goal, to win championships, and we start out all even and hopefully be on top when it's all over."
Q. What did you think of the trade for Donovan McNabb?
