ScoutNFL: A report Thursday said Vikings receiver Sidney Rice may have an arthritic hip, and an earlier report cited a kidney issue before the 2010 season.

Vikings coach Leslie Fraizer wasn't getting into specifics, but he said the team has full confidence in Rice's ability to return to his 2009 form.

“I really don’t want to get into some of the medical questions on our guys right now, but the one thing I can tell you is he’s a guy that we want to be a Viking and we’re going to do everything that we’re capable of to try to get that accomplished," Frazier said of the pending free-agent receiver. "We don’t have any medical concerns regarding Sidney at this point. Our doctors have cleared him. They’ve made it clear to us, don’t hold back and whatever you want to try to do to get him signed. That’s how we’re approaching it.” -- Tim Yotter, VikingUpdate.com

ScoutNFL: South Carolina 6-foot-4 receiver Tori Gurley has the build of a basketball player. Turns out, he has a basketball background, having played for the Charlotte Miners AAU team head coached by former NBA great Dell Curry.

“I was just at (Duke guard) Seth Curry’s game a few weeks ago when they were down in Miami," said Gurley, "and I talked to Dell not too long ago. He just wished me all the luck in the world and told me to take it one day at a time.”

Curry’s assistant coach was another NBA great, David Thompson. They suggested Gurley focus on football “because I was starting to bang people around when I was 18, 19 years old playing AAU team.”

Gurley entered the draft after his redshirt sophomore season and is viewed as a late-round prospect. He caught 44 passes for 465 yards and four touchdowns in 2010. But he’s a big target who didn’t drop a pass last year.

“I’m very physical, and teams know that I’m a football player. I’m willing to do whatever it takes to win the game.” -- Bill Huber, PackerReport.com

great news, now maybe we can get some of their defenders if cba is signed that rob ryan knows can run his defense. Kinda like when wade got Brooking and Igor as players that knew his defense. :starspin

As far as the labor talks, most believe there will be a 2 week extension of the talks, and then the owners will lock out the players.

Mike Shanahan at the podium. Similar to most coaches in Indy, talking footwork with prospect workouts. Great opportunity to see technique.

Sounds like Shanahan is full of uncertainty today re status of McNabb, Haynesworth, Portis.

RT @GeorgeAtallah A very interesting vibe around here in Indianapolis. Disappointing our entire focus is not on the prospective NFL players.
