The Minnesota Vikings signed a wide receiver on Sunday. Former first-round pick N'Keal Harry is headed to Minnesota to provide depth. At least, that's what they are hoping for with this add. 

Unfortunately, Harry already made a big mistake. It comes on the aesthetic side of the ball. He chose to dawn the number '28' for the Vikings. Of course, that was the number that Adrian Peterson wore during his time with the time. He's a Vikings legend.

Will it affect Harry on the field? Probably not. That being said, he's placing even more pressure on himself to perform with the decision. Plus, that number should not be worn by another Viking speller – anyway. It needs to be retired after the illustrious career that Peterson had with the franchise.
