My heart hit the floor yesterday when I saw on Facebook someone wishing Rochester Native Marcus Sherels good luck in Carolina. Thankfully it was a false report. Yes the Vikings have not resigned Marcus but he has not signed with anyone else as of the time of this article. Marcus is a home state hero and a great example of determination to succeed. Here is a small glimpse of his impact as a Viking:
- Vikings single-season punt return average: 15.2 (2013)
- Most punt return yards in a game: 119,(October 21, 2013)
- Most punt return touchdowns in a career: 5
- The first Vikings to have 5 or more punt return touchdowns in franchise history: 5
- First Vikings player to have two games with more than 100 yards in punt returns: (2016)
- Most Special Team touchdowns by any Viking in franchise history: 5 (tied with Cordarrelle Patterson)
