Za'darius Smith stays in the NFC north?
Last week, it was announced that edge rusher Za'darius Smith would be signing with the Baltimore Ravens. However, he pulled out of the deal a couple of days later.
He now tweeted a cryptic tweet and it pretty much guarantees that he has agreed to sign with the Minnesota Vikings. Here it is:
This is in reference to the famous Purple People Eaters from the Minnesota Vikings.
"Purple People Eaters were the defensive line of the Minnesota Vikings from the late 1960s to the late 1970s. The term is a reference to a popular song from 1958, the efficiency of the defense, and the color of their uniforms. The motto of the Purple People Eaters was "Meet at the quarterback" ".
It is not official but I would bet a lot of money that by tomorrow, we have the report that he has agreed to terms with his new team.
While Smith missed almost the entire season due to a back injury last year, he could still provide a great impact on the Vikings. Let's just say Bears fans are not thrilled to have to face him twice a year again...
