Minnesota Vikings players, executives, and staff collaborated with powersports company Polaris employees to assist Twin Cities Habitat for Humanity in building a new home for a local family during the team's third annual Build Week. The project focused on constructing a four-bedroom, two-bathroom house in West St. Paul.
Vikings quarterback Nick Mullens and tight end Nick Muse joined teammates Ryan Wright, Greg Joseph, Dalton Risner, and Vikings legend Scott Studwell to work on drywall throughout the afternoon, the Vikings said in a recent press release.
"We're here to help. We're having a blast," Vikings quarterback Nick Mullens said. "I can't say I'm the most handy guy in the world, but it's a great team effort to be putting a house together, and we're just here to help serve and build a house that's going to become a family's home."
