Vikings Pay Tribute to Bud Grant in 2023 Season
The Minnesota Vikings will honor the late Bud Grant, former coach of the team, with a jersey patch in Week 1 and a helmet sticker throughout the 2023 season. The patch and sticker will feature Grant's signature "Bud" autograph and will be worn in conjunction with the debut of the Vikings' "classic" uniform, which pays tribute to the 1960s and '70s teams that Grant coached to four Super Bowls. Grant, who passed away in March at the age of 95, was the first person to be inducted into both the CFL Hall of Fame and the Pro Football Hall of Fame.
