Glad to see this.Quote:
• The Vikings extended a tender offer to exclusive rights free agent Heath Farwell, who led the team with 25 special teams tackles last season. Farwell, a linebacker, will receive a one-year deal worth $435,000.
Farwell was The Man on special teams last year.

I agree. He were great on ST.
And actually so were Jason Glenn before he went down, so I hope they'll bring him back too.
I remember also in a couple pre-season games last year, when Farwell was put in to play, his name was being mentioned almost every other play it seemed.....Nice to see him staying for sure..
Solid signing. Great way to solidify the ST. I also remember him getting some playing time during the pre season also. He played well too.
I really like Farwell. Great STer. I like that our coaches aren't just letting good Fa's walk like in the past.

Nice to see that Farwell will be sticking around for at least 1 more year.. That guy is awesome on ST's, and is solid as a backup LB.. Good move on the Vikings part..
When I saw Farwell in person, I couldn't believe how small he was. I guess I just expected an NFL linebacker to be bigger. :-
Just goes to show that small dudes can still make tackles. I'll get you soon Bettis!
