So sayeth the folks at Access Vikings.

I kind of like this move, to be honest.  We can't have Vinny Ciurciu out there at middle linebacker in crunch time. . .or at any other time, for that matter.

Thomas, who the Vikings selected in the second round of the 2004 Draft, signed with the San Francisco 49ers as a free agent this off-season, but was released during Training Camp.  The Vikings will have to make a roster move to accomodate Thomas once his paperwork clears with the league.

EDIT:  Apparently said roster move is going to be rookie OL Drew Radovich moving to the injured reserve list with an injured shoulder.
