One would think that after proving yourself to owners, players, fans, and the league for over ten years that your contract would be secure. Well, unfortunately, that is not the case for seven time pro bowl receiver Randy Moss. Moss was traded this morning from the New England Patriots to the Minnesota Vikings, after failing to catch one ball in the Pats win this past Monday against the Miami Dolphins. (This is the first time as a Pat that Moss failed to have a reception in a game.)
Whether the Pats were disappointed in Moss' performance this past week or just sick of his controversial antics, the team was willing to trade him for a mere third round draft pick. Seems like quite a bargain for the Vikings, who now get to add an all-star receiver to Brett Favre's lineup. It may be Moss who gets the last laugh with the Vikings who boast Favre, Percy Harvin, Adrian Peterson, and now Moss to their starting offense.
