Vikings' Rhett Ellison: Placed on PUP list
Ellison (knee) has been placed on the active/physically unable to perform list for the start of training camp, Ben Goessling of ESPN NFL Nation reports.
Analysis:
Ellison was expected to be fully recovered from the torn patellar tendon he suffered in last season's finale by the start of camp, but it appears he'll need a little extra time. He's expected to be back at practice relatively soon, where he'll compete to be the team's third tight end option behind Kyle Rudolph and MyCole Pruitt.
