Hank Baskett, NFL receiver but best known for his marriage to Kendra Wilkinson, was released form the Philadelphia Eagles on Tuesday. But Baskett was not without a job for long because he signed with the Minnesota Vikings today after the team failed to trade for San Diego Chargers receiver Vincent Jackson.
The Vikings were in need of a receiver, and Baskett started his career in Minnesota. Baskett signed as a rookie undrafted free agent in 2006 out of the University of New Mexico
This is the second time Baskett has been released by the Eagles. After being released by Philadelphia in 2009, Baskett went on to play for the Inianapolis Colts where he was involved in a controversial slip up in Super Bowl XLIV.
Baskett and Wilkinson have their own reality show on E! Good luck in Minnesota Hank, but Thejerserychaser.com says to keep your day job!!
