Getty ImagesPackers tight end Brandon Bostick paid for his special teams gaffe with his job.
But he’s apparently found another one quickly.
Minneapolis-based agent Blake Baratz just tweeted out word that Bostick’s “coming to my hood,” and “Great landing spot, in my backyard, the best is yet to come my man!”
Bostick was waived yesterday, so it’s likely a waiver claim.
Bostick was released after misplaying the onsides kick that allowed the Seahawks to come back and win the NFC Championship, a play he might have never lived down in Green Bay.
He had nine receptions in two years with the Packers, and never took advantage of the opportunity to play a larger role this year.
But the Vikings are apparently going to give him a chance to make the Packers pay again.
Where Packers leftovers go to finish their careers.
Surprise, Vikings sign another Ex-Packer…
SHOCKER!!!!!!!
Guy will see what a real team is ran! Not that dog and pony show in turd bay that plays clown music at scrimages during the week!
I’m sure Bostick will remain loyal to the Packers and keep their secrets hidden…
G’dangit Vikings, you make it hard to defend ourselves against Packer Swine on this forum.

And that pony show and clown music has brought the Packers 4 Superbowl rings.
That picture sums up everything. Congrats Vikings. Better than drafting a tight end too early. See bust Rudolph
LOL.
ok but to be honest, I think that he is going to be unleashed there. I feel we didnt let him play.
Will the Vikings give him a day off so he can raise the 12th Man flag at least once?
He wasn’t responsible for that deep bomb in NFCC game in OT either! That would be hilarious if he “caught” on with the Vikings

He struggled with the playbook and was beat out by a rookie. I’m not sure if he even remembers any of those “secrets”.
What a waste. Does Spielman think he’s going to put on weight and play OL?! Switch him to LB or DB?!
WHY THE F DO WE KEEP MAKING TRANSACTIONS LIKE THIS?!
We have 4 TE on our roster now that we cannot utilize, why add a 5th?!
Like BHINRICHS9 said, it’s hard to defend this team (or talk smack about other teams) when they do BS like this…….
He is now the best player the Vikings have.
Too funny! Gotta love it!
-all packers fans
Don’t get your panties in bunch Packer fans, I’m sure he wont make it past training camp. Depth move.
Blow Pack Blow!!

Can you say “choke” any better than the Packers NFC Championship game performance?
Now we’ll see what good coaching can do for Bostick, just as they (Turner) did with former Packer draftee WR Charles Johnson.
Wow, you cant make this stuff up.
Although he’s one of my favorite players of all time, I wish the Viking wouldn’t have signed him. Now I have to listen to Packer fans talk about us snapping up their leftovers all offseason until he’s cut.
He’s remembered for making a TERRIBLE play. But beyond that, you don’t remember him, because he was a TERRIBLE TE. We had no one at the position and he still struggled. I really respect that he took ownership for the Seattle gaffe and I hope that he can step up his game for the Vikes but he really didn’t fit with the Packers. Also #SKOLOLOLOL
You can’t make this up sometimes, skol!
Must give Packer players comfort knowing if they can’t play real pro football, there’s always the Vikings who will gladly take them.
Isn’t he just a blocking TE at the league minimum?
Doesn’t really move the meter for me.
Should be welcomed into MN as some sort of folklore hero though.
Purgatory, where all ex Packers go.
Surprise, Vikings sign another Ex-Packer…

For example, Green Bay is trash, and coming to Minnesota is like finding treasure for these guys.
Good move Minn…For GB fans and mgmt to blame Bostic is BS….Blame McCarthy for his inept play calling….And a defense that couldn’t close the deal
As a Vikings fan, I don’t approve….we got enough guys who don’t listen like Patterson….

I can. 1998 Gary Anderson’s missed Field Goal.
And that “treasure” is precisely why the vikings live in the cellar
MN saw value in him, unlike the Packers who needed a scapegoat.

He struggled with the play book in the beginning of the season, and ended up getting beat out by a rookie. The mistake in the NFC Championship game only made it worse for him.
I still enjoy watching NFC championship highlights. It won’t get old for some time.
SKOLOLOLOL!!!!! Unbelievable how quickly they jumped on him, and how queenies are now defending the guy. Have fun with that, dumb as a box of rocks, no hands, no blocking skills…. treasure in MN for sure….
Oh look! The Vikings signed the Packers sloppy seconds again.
Now sit back and wait for Vikings fans to say how Bostick was the only Packers player with any talent.
Losers.
make the Packers pay? he can’t even remember which route to run,
I don’t approve either! Listening to packers fans is enough punishment!
Actually, this move makes perfect sense. On one hand, you have a TE that simply choked at the most critical moment, everybody makes mistakes but Bostick blew chunks on the biggest stage at the biggest moment on that stage.
He joins a franchise that has literally redefined the word, choke. Losers of 4 Superbowls, where they were favored in all 4 and yet never held a lead for even a second in any of the Superbowls, losers of the last NFC Championship games they appeared.
Its a match made in heaven.
The city of GB should fire their entire sanitation department since the Minnesota Vikings are so willing to snap up their trash in record time.
I can’t believe it…it was just yesterday ev’one was giving Viking’s fans a hard time suggesting Bostick was going to Minnesota, and now less than 24 hours later it’s come true!!!
Sometimes you guys are spot on!!!
But you still didn’t pick Seattle to make it back to the SB bowl…so, be modest in your celebration.
i guess he could help share the packers playbook with the vikings, but for him to do that he has to actually know it.
How many times do the Vikings have to lose to the Packers before they realize that you can’t beat the Packers by building a roster out of players who are not good enough to hold a spot on the Packers roster?
Guy certainly deserves another chance, as it’s a team game, and the Packers lost that game as a team.
Out of all the teams in the League, Minnesota seems a good fit, and the players are more likely to follow any jokes about his unfortunate play against the Seahawks with a high five!
Another camp body who might have some knowledge of the Packers 2014 playbook. If he makes the final 53 roster, then it will have saved the Vikings from using a mid to late round draft choice this year on the position.
Lol @ “One of my favorite players of all time” coming from a Vikings fan. Classic. Skol!

8 million a year for 46 catches or whatever it was is terrible production. i know you want jennings to be good to stick it to packer fans but his production has been extremely low for his pay and has hurt your team more than helped due to that.

Isn’t that what the Vike’s did in their last 2 NFC Championship game? 98 come to mind? They had the best team that year. Give you a break on the N.O game since favre choke in the last minutes.
I don’t want to hear the stupid cheeseheads talk about this. They are annoying enough. This just gives them more crap to talk about.
The Packers will just have to find someone else to help them lose to the NFC West in the playoffs this year.
Keep the cast offs coming. It’s helped so much!!!

Yup, all that good coaching that has kept the vikings in the hunt year after year. Meanwhile our horrible players (except the ones who go to the vikes of course) and terrible coaching staff can’t get us out of the cellar. If only we were as good as the Minnesota Vikings…..
BTW way, this is the funniest post I’ve seen in ages. Just yesterday I was reading the story of these guys getting cut and all the viking trolls were talking trash, now their team has picked him up. The irony is so thick and yummy.
Brandon bostick was my favorite packer!! Go vikings!! Enjoy letroy guion you dumb ….. Packer fans who say the vikes only sign ex packers. You got a real winner in guion.
PACKERS TRASH = VIKINGS TREASURE ! LMAO !
That’s the perfect punishment for what he did!
This kind of reminds me of Green Bay giving the Cardinals’ Nathan Poole the key to the city after he made the 4th down catch to knock the Vikings out of the playoffs in 2003.
Its not like the packers dont pick up any ex Vikings. Letroy Guion as of late, couldnt get a starting position in Minnesota so he settled to start with green bay… SKOL!LOL!
Be interesting to see how Brandon Blows It responds to having NFL caliber coaching for the first time…..
That’s the perfect punishment for what he did!
///////////////////////////////////////////
Awesome!
Obvious jokes and what not…vikes are jokes, yaddayadda.
But seriously, I hope Bostic catches on with another team and is able to put that “Ka-Durrh” moment behind him.
He’ll never fit in. He was brainwashed to win.
Well boys, we got em…
The Packers secret weapon is now ours…
But until training camp I will happy to watch the NFC championship over and over and over….
Bostick will tell the Vikings the Packers secrets. Starting with the MVP likes to throw Touch Down passes. This may sound funny but have you seen the Vikings D? smh!
Holy Cash for Clunkers!
I was going to make a joke about the queens signing him when he got cut, but man, talk about the jokes writing themselves.
1. I feel lie Spielman is trollin us with this one
2. He’ll probably get cut, Rudolph is the starter, Chase Ford is a solid pass catching back-up, and Rhett Ellison is the main blocking all around guy already…so I don’t see Bostick sticking around
Eff. I guess he was my favorite Packa….so….
The Vikings aren’t taking any chances. They’ve even required Bridgewater to soak his hands in a hybrid solution of Viagra ingredients for six hours per day!

——————————
Actually, Guion started all 28 games he played for MN in 2012 and 2013. I guess it just took better coaching to get him to put up serviceable numbers.
As for Bostick, I guess he found the perfect solution to his biggest problem. The easiest way to not make any more mistakes in a playoff game is to sign with a team that won’t make the playoffs.
Can you imagine the look of excitement he had on his face when he realized he was leaving Green Bay Wisconsin, where dreams go to die and everybody is married to their cousin!
Immediately the Vikings will place the Franchise tag on him. lol
Kindda feel bad for the guy…you go from the Penthouse to the Outhouse in two days.
1st class organization to the Vikings wow that is a fall from grace.
The Vikings must be planning to really dumb-down their offensive playbook this year.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!
This is awesome!!!
All jokes aside though, you really have to feel bad for Brandon Bostick, right?!? The guy just can’t catch a break (or an onside kick)…first he plays the scapegoat for GB losing the NFCC, then he gets picked up by MN. I truly feel bad for him.
Can you imagine the look of excitement he had on his face when he realized he was going to the Minnesota Vikings, where no one is expecting to play in the post season?
Poor guy. First he gets cut by the Packers, then he has sign with the Vikings. That’s a lot for any one player to have to take
Good news is he won’t have to worry about choking in a playoff game again.
Too funny! The circle of NFL trash recycling continues…
Oh this is too easy! This organization is such a joke. Even if he gets cut eventually, the fact that they’re giving him an opportunity after what they saw from him in green bay, shows how terrible their talent evaluators are.
And to the few of you saying that the packers sign viking rejects, that was ONE person. Your team has signed enough packers to fill an entire roster.
Hey lets all over react some more and continue to act like it’sa guaranteed roster spot.
I don’t know if Bostick will make it with the Vikings or not. Could be just a camp body.
But facts are facts. McCarthy fired his special teams coach – which means that the players weren’t being coached properly.
The Vikings have one of the better special teams units in the NFL – and maybe that’s due to a better ST coaching staff.
I’m not excited or dejected because of a waiver claim. It didn’t cost us a draft pick and the money is negligible.
If Brandon can show something in camp to earn a spot, more power to him.
Now, Packer fans, you can continue to troll about the one of the scapegoats of your NFC Championship CHOKE job…
I think Ted Thompson probably should have cut Mike McCarthy. He had more to do with the loss than Brandon Bostick did.
Really? No. Just no.
Ted Thompson should get a raise cause he’s now obviously drafting for both the Packers and Vikings!
Best hands on the vikings already.
In all seriousness, Bostick has been there for three years and couldn’t beat out a rookie and an average TE in Quarless to get any playing time.
I don`t doubt for one second that Bostick immediately improves the level of talent on the Vikings………………..
This is a pretty wasted move. First off the Vikings do not need another TE. 2nd, they need to look at who is going to start at TE. IMO, Chase Ford is better than Rudolph. I don’t think this guy will make the roster.

I know there’s a lot of stupid posts from fans on here but as a Viking fan even I think this one is funny.
He instantly becomes a legit player when he becomes a Vikings. Things will never happen like what he did for the Packers bc their coaches suck at coaching period. Look at Charles Johnson. Rodgers didn’t make him better than Bridgewater.

i keep seeing packer fans claiming he has terrible hands, dumb as rocks, can’t block, etc. maybe those are the reasons the genius ted thompson brought him aboard? more likely they’re just turning on him like they do every ex-packer. to be honest, it doesn’t take much to make that team as a tight end, so this time they may be right.
looks like a depth signing to help get the vikings to a 90 man roster for training camp, maybe provide some insight on a division rival. either way, congrats to the kid for landing in an offense that knows how to use a tight end.
Packer scapegoat. He gets cut because McCarthy can’t coach and the defense crumbled. It was one play and it wasn’t a scoring play. Plenty of other chances to close it out and Pack just collapsed. Horrible.
This signing should bump the Vikings over/under up to 5 next year
He didn’t realize the Packers used a playbook as they play at an over glorified high school stadium known as Lambeau Field. Granted the Vikings currently play at a College Stadium, but it’s still a step up.
He probably didn’t even need to sign, he has a life long endorsement deal with Butterfingers!
Have fun with this moron Minnesota! Hahaha!

Just like thousands of other ‘sconny losers…come to MN to get a decent job. Should’ve closed off that border years ago.
Bostick is a hero on the good side of the St. Croix! I’m glad we rewarded him. All heroes should get rewarded! Even if he doesn’t make the ’15 roster, he is THE man! And he will never have to wear those heinous uniforms ever again!
Hilarious!
Can’t this organization find players on their own??
Overpaid mightily for Greg Jennings …
Charles Johnson, the 3rd seventh round pick for the Packers beats out Cordelle Patterson – the Vikings’ first round pick ..
… and now Bostick – the tight end with the stone hands, and a penchant for not following directions ..
.. you’re in good hands, Viking fans … continue wetting yourselves …
@seapoeschl, Bostick was signed by the Packers in May 2012.
Maybe he will play DB for the Vikes, he has already shown that he has the ability to shut down Jordy Nelson.

Here are the updated answers then
1. He was a rookie that showed potential.
2. This was his 3rd year on the team, but 2nd year actually playing. He was on the practice squad the entire 2012 season.
3. He was demoted to Special teams after he lost his starting position to a rookie for struggling with the playbook.
I believe Bostick is a decent guy, but struggles with his lack of intelligence. He was unable to adequately learn his responsibilities on the football field in three years and his gaff in the playoff game simply could not occur without serious consequences.
Best of luck to the young man and hope his future is bright.
The Minnesota Vikings are beyond parody.
So envious of the Packers that they will desperately sign any warm body the Packers cut – even a benchwarmer who made one of the biggest gaffes in NFL playoff history.
Enjoy many more years without a trophy.
Camp body. Non news. Now if they sign Cobb, then we’ll have something to talk about.
@seapoeschl, Bostick hasn’t even made the Vikes’ 53-man roster yet, let alone be used in a game. If there’s any team that should be laughed at when it comes to Bostick, it’s the Packers, not the Vikings. Not only did the Pack sign him, keep him, and play him, but they did it to disastrous consequences.
All the Vikes have done is pick up a body for minimal cost in the off season.
As a cheesehead I do feel sorry for Bostick and I wish him well with the Vikings. They probably have an easier playbook to understand. #McCarthyism #InTedWeTrust
A decent player gets scapegoated by the Packers because the diva is upset and McFatty is covering his butt so the Vikings get a decent player because of it. Sweet!
Good to see the wanna-be-hero who contributed to the Packers loss is gone.
If only he had blocked and let Jordy catch it as he was supposed to do, Packers would have been SB winners.
Ho hum, nothing here to see other than Packer fans finally getting a chance to come out of their dark collapse-driven depression for a couple minutes. At least Bostick will finally get a chance to be coached by a pro-level special teams coach.
The Vikes have been down for so long that lousy players like this one seem like up to them.
Lol
Teams sign a lot of players who never make the roster.
Packers are a good team and it can’t hurt to look at him.
Not sure what all the noise is about.

It’s not the fact that they signed him, it is the fact that they claimed him off of the waivers. For a team that has history of bringing in ex-packers, this is just hilarious. I almost believe that they signed him as a joke.
The Packers had 4 TEs on their roster. 2 were rookies and 2 had a few years of experience. If Bostick did his job, then nothing wrong would have happened. I still believe that he would have been cut after the season.

According to your logic, do you think that Ponder could have been the next Aaron Rodgers if he had a QB coaching staff like the Packers? You are pretty much saying the reason that Bostick made the mistake was because of coaching and not the fact that he didn’t do what he was supposed to do.
I’m guessing they signed him so Patterson wouldn’t have the worst hands on the team.
viking fan monitoring the reply’s…
That was the Packers plan all along for him to end up in Minnesota.
I’m looking forward to Bostick claiming he was brainwashed in Green Bay.
Manipulated into a winning cult of superiority over other NFL opponents.
It will do him good to wallow in mediocrity for a while.
To clear up some misconceptions, Bostick was signed as an undrafted TE in 2012.
He spent his entire rookie season on the practice squad.
Though given every opportunity over the last 2 years to crack the starting lineup, he has failed and was relegated to special teams.
He honestly possesses the size and speed to be a very good TE in this league, but injuries, questions about his overall football smarts and work ethic has derailed his career in Green Bay.
He’s young and if the light bulb ever ignites for this kid, maybe he’ll be able to salvage his career.
When people joke about the Vikings signing former Packers all the time, it is only funny because it’s true.
25% chance of even making this team
And the Vikes now have 4 TE on roster. He is 4th on depth chart. They will keep 3. Guess who is out.
Ahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!!!!!!!!
Hilarious. Spielman wouldn’t even have a team without scrounging for Packer Rejects. There is not another scenario in all of professional sports where one team has consistently picked up another team’s cast offs like the Vikings have with Packer players. (Guion was a one year free agent contract to back up Raji and will not be back next year).
C’mon Vikings fans, you had to see this coming, no? The Packers cut him to get better; the Vikings signed him and got significantly better. The NFCN is normal again. This is absolutely funny.
Still
Keep
On
Losing!!!! SKOL!!!!!!!!
He got fired from his last job for playing like a Viking, but I think his new job is better suited to his very particular set of skills.
Pssttttt. Ricky Tick. You know Tony Mandarich was cut from Green Bay? Hmmmmm?
I have to laugh at all the Vikings fans saying he’ll be good because he’ll “finally be coached by a decent special teams coach.”
I mean, fair enough, but the Packer didn’t sign him as an undrafted free agent to play special teams. Their goal was to take a few years and develop him into a play-making TE. In three years the guy just couldn’t grasp the playbook. He literally only had four targets on offense last season.
He would have been cut this off season whether or not he fumbled that onside kick or not. It’s simply a matter of the Packers realizing that, after three years, he was not going to develop into an NFL-caliber TE.
Whatever makes you feel better about that collapse in front of the whole league that fans of every team laughed at, that utter every thing to screw up was screwed up hilarious we’re going to the supe………ohhh, failure. Yep, laugh it up, nothing was funnier ever than watching that crushing meltdown, and the funniest play was LOL Eatin-Dix looking hapless on a prayer 2 pt. conversion that hung in the air like a punt. classic
We just brought him in so he could retire a Viking.
You need a lot of players at camp.
Maybe he amounts to something, maybe not, probably not.
Rumor has it the Vikings gave him a $2822.00 signing bonus…
He’ll never fit in. He was brainwashed to win…
Does anyone see the irony from a Packer fan in this?
The Minnesota Vikings are beyond parody.
So envious of the Packers that they will desperately sign any warm body the Packers cut – even a benchwarmer who made one of the biggest gaffes in NFL playoff history………………………………………….
After the NFCC you are calling the Vikings a parody? The Offseason Championship goes to the Packers…
WE GOT BRANDON BOTCH-KICK!!!
Is there any sort of actual personnel department in Minnesota, or do they just have an intern watching for players cut in Green Bay?
Geez Louis, do you guys realize how much turnover there is at the bottom of NFL rosters? Nothing to see here.
injuries and lack of production cost bostick his job, that and the production from Richard Rodgers.
So that’s why I always see those viking guys hanging out around the Packers dumpster.I always thought they we’re just waiting for left over cheese curds.
If he plays well for Minnesota, he hopes to eventually get back to the pros.
Vikings coach- ok Brandon, you were in GB for three years. Tell me everything you can about the playbook!!’
Brandon- there was one?
Some people wonder why this team and the band of purple trolls are a laughingstock one needs not go any further. The Minnesota Vikings the gift that keeps on giving!
You can bet Kyle Rudolph is looking over his shoulder.
There is a great chance he won’t be on the roster opening day. This was simply a middle finger move to the pack, lol…
Packer fans memories are short — which is easily understandable considering the copious amounts of alcohol and artery-clogging cheese they consume. So, I’ll remind them that the Packers have signed former Vikings, too. The latest was when the Packers signed Viking cast-off and mediocre talent Latrine Guion and he was an instant upgrade to the Packers D-line.
The Packers send another one down to AAA. Not much of a player, but a standup kid. I think he’s already given Viking fans all the joy he’ll ever give them.
There go those purple pill eaters again, digging around in the Packers garbage. Once a dumpster diver, always a dumpster diver.
Just block dude……just block.
Goodbye Titletown, Hello Minnecrapolis. Land of 10,000 lakes but zero Championships! Kinda’ like a Russian soldier getting sent to Siberia. Those Vikings never learn, they still think they can build a Super Bowl team with Packer castoffs. Fifty years and still counting!
Vikings fans aren’t you so cute. Lets look back to the last time your team was in the Super Bowl.
