TFD: Looks like ex-Viking WR Greg Jennings is about to find a new team (update)

April 1, 2015 at 2:22PM

When the Vikings traded for Mike Wallace a few weeks back, people immediately wondered what would happen with Greg Jennings. The answer came quickly, when the team announced it was releasing the veteran WR, who was well-liked in his two years here but didn't produce like a top-end receiver.

The parting was amicable, and Jennings even released a statement thanking the team and fans.

It seems as though Jennings is about to find gainful new employment. He tweeted this on Tuesday:

While Jennings didn't leave any clues about where he is headed, Miami has been considered a possible landing spot. It would be interesting if he and Wallace essentially trade places — after both signed as free agents with the Vikings and Miami, respectively, in 2013.

UPDATE: OK, maybe Jennings isn't really signing somewhere else soon. The whole series of tweets, which kept building throughout Tuesday night, culminated in a lame April Fools' Day joke. Let's all go back to not particularly caring where Jennings winds up, at least until it actually happens.

The team will open its WNBA campaign on May 10 against Atlanta, assuming the league and the players union have a deal by then.
