It has been reported that the Minnesota Vikings are moving closer to a deal with linebacker Brian Urlacher.
The 35-year-old has been without a team after failing to agree terms for a contract extension with the Chicago Bears earlier this year.
A source told the Chicago Sun-Times: "It's getting close to happening, but Brian is leaning toward heading to Minnesota and is talking a one- to two-year contract."
However, NFL.com has said that the Vikings are likely to look towards the talent already on their roster to compete for the place at inside linebacker before bringing in more players.
