The Minnesota Vikings are in need of offensive line help with injuries to 3 of their 5 starting offensive lineman.  They appeared to have found it in Cold Spring native and former Dallas Cowboy, Matthew Waletzko.  Sources close to Matt have indicated Waletzko flew to London Monday.  Waletzko officially signed a contract to join the Vikings' practice squad Tuesday.  It's unclear whether he'll be elevated to the active roster for Sunday's game.
