Charleston signs with Vikings...

#Vikings announce they've waived DT Terrell Resonno and signed DE Jeff Charleston, who played past 4 seasons with #Saints.

Good for him but I would not have minded having him in camp for us atleast.

damn! we are thin there. smith suspension, romeus out. I thought for sure he would have played this year.

Maybe the Saints could use this as a motivational tool to get players to re-structure their contracts!

Player: "I want more money!"

Loomis: "The Vikings are hiring!"

Player: "$%#%#%#"

Does he have to grow a mullet?

And learn to choke in big games?

And whine and cry about being hit too hard???

Guess we'll have to put a bounty on him now...

Only when the Saints do it!

Always liked the guy. Good luck to him... hope he managed to get some guaranteed money.

Don't feel bad for him, he has the hottest ol lady in the world. Believe me..he wins

Picture?

Gonna miss him. He was an asset.

Ummm Florio seems to think Charleston is the one who said "give me my money"..interesting

Vikings add member of 2009 Saints defense | ProFootballTalk

The Vikings apparently are willing to let bounties be bygones.

On Thursday, the team signed a member of the 2009 Saints, who allegedly had a total bounty of $35,000 on Brett Favre in the NFC title game that year.

The new arrival is defensive end Jeff Charleston, a six-year veteran who joins a depth chart that could be without Everson Griffen, if he eventually shifts to linebacker. To make room for Charleston, the Vikings cut defensive tackle Terrell Resonno.

Charleston, who spent the last four years with the Saints after one season with the Colts, appeared in every game during the 2009 campaign — including the 31-28 overtime win over the Vikings.

If there indeed was a bounty system that year, and specifically a bounty on Brett Favre, Charleston likely knows all about it.

Of course, the Vikings previously employed the player who widely is believed to be the man who said “give me my money” on the notorious sideline videotape. The Vikings cut defensive tackle Remi Ayodele after only one season, dumping him on the same day that the NFL announced the initial penalties against the Saints and various coaches.

Ayodele has since re-signed with the Saints.

Good for Jeff !

Good for him. I could never get the candy bar picture out of my head when they said his name.

Never knew why he couldn't get more playing time

Looks like he'll fit right in ...

Bring a coat it's cold up there.

I always liked Charleston. He had a high motor and a good attitude. He played his ass off too. Wish we would have kept him.
