Vikings receiver Bernard Berrian called and apologized to Minnesota Representative John Kriesel following a Twitter exchange between the two. Kriesel started the exchange by criticizing Berrian's claims that he's always open. In response, Berrian told Kriesel to 'sit down and shut up.' What Berrian didn't know is that Kriesel is an avid Vikings fan in support of a new stadium. He's also a war veteran that lost both legs in combat.

Bernard Berrian is expected to be back in the Vikings' lineup this weekend against the Chicago Bears. The wide receiver was benched during Sunday's win over the Cardinals. Head coach Leslie Frazier says he doesn't "foresee any future problems" from Berrian.

After being deactivated as a healthy scratch two of the last three weeks, the Vikings cut Bernard Berrian Tuesday. Afterward, Berrian issued a statement on his website saying he was blessed to have played in Minnesota for three-and-a-half years, and that he views this as an opportunity to grow as a player and bring his strengths to a new organization.

Bernard Berrian's dismal 2010 season in which he finished with only 28-catches was supposed to turn into a bounce back season in 2011. So far that's not the case as Berrian has only one-reception through three games. Who's to blame?
