EDEN PRAIRIE, Minn. -- Recovered from his knee surgeries and taking snaps at left tackle during individual drills with the leagues only undefeated team on Tuesday,?Jake Long?has a new lease on his football career.Long practiced with the Minnesota Vikings for the first time Tuesday, after working out for the team on Monday and signing with the Vikings on Tuesday morning. He was the No. 1 pick in the 2008 NFL draft by the Miami Dolphins when current Vikings offensive line coach Tony Sparano was the Dolphins head coach.They have a great team, and Im really excited to be a part of it, Long said. When I got that call, I was jacked up and ready to roll. We had the workout yesterday, everything went well, and then [I] signed. Getting back out here today, getting back to football, I was like a kid in a candy store.Long said the Vikings first reached out to his agent last week.He hasnt had a training camp, so hes relatively healthy when he came in for the physical, general manager Rick Spielman said. He passed our physical or we wouldnt have signed him. And we know that he was a pretty good football player when he was healthy. So, we felt it was the best option for us out there.The Vikings placed right tackle Andre Smith on injured reserve Tuesday.?T.J. Clemmings struggles at left tackle, though, could put Long in the running to protect?Sam Bradfords?blind side for a second time, after the two played together in St.?Louis with the Rams.Smith, who signed a one-year deal with the Vikings this past spring, injured his triceps on Oct. 3 against the New York Giants and was replaced by Jeremiah Sirles. Smith is the second tackle the Vikings have placed on injured reserve this season, following Matt Kalil, and the fourth offensive starter lost to injured reserve (including running back Adrian Peterson and quarterback Teddy Bridgewater).Long, a four-time Pro Bowl lineman, underwent ACL surgeries in his right knee in both 2013 and 2014 while with St. Louis. The 31-year-old played just 11 snaps for the Atlanta Falcons in 2015.Long told ESPN in June he was finally healthy ... the best Ive felt in five or six years. His pronouncement was endorsed to teams by Dr. James Andrews, who has performed Longs surgeries and overseen the players recovery.The?Baltimore Ravens?were on the verge of signing him in July, but the deal fell apart when Long declined to sign a waiver on his right knee.?On Tuesday, Long said the wait for a job was frustrating, because I knew I was healthy, but he sounded confident that hes ready to contribute.Injuries happen, and unfortunately, Ive had my fair share, he said. Through all of them, Ive put my head down, Ive rehabbed, worked hard and havent given up. I know what I can do. I know the type of player I can be when Im healthy. So I just put my head down and got through the frustration to get back. And now I got this opportunity, and I have to thrive in it.Sources say Long is willing to play for around the veteran minimum wage of $885,000, which would be prorated with 11 games remaining in the regular season. The Vikings have only an estimated $1.8 million of salary-cap space available.While Long joins the team, it appears the Vikings will also continue to be without guard/tackle?Mike Harris, who started all 16 games at right guard last year but was placed on the non-football illness list this past summer. After initially saying the issue was related to his head, Harris has said little about his condition other than that he looked forward to returning when doctors cleared him, but Zimmer said on Monday it didnt look like the Vikings would get Harris back in 2016.After left guard Alex Boone missed time with a hip injury and right guard Brandon Fusco left with a concussion on Sunday, center Joe Berger is the only Vikings starting lineman not to miss time this season.NFL Insiders?Chris Mortensen and?Ed Werder contributed to this report.

NEW YORK -- A former New York Islanders co-owner who received a 10-year prison term for a fraud conviction had his sentence cut in half Wednesday by a judge who cited his good deeds and cooperation with prosecutors.U.S. District Judge Loretta A. Preska in Manhattan said 69-year-old Paul Greenwood deserved a reduction to five years. She noted that he regularly did charitable acts long before he became embroiled in an over half-billion-dollar financial fraud that spanned a dozen years.The 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Manhattan ordered the resentencing this year, saying another judge wrongly based the 10-year sentence in part on a finding that Greenwood had left some individuals financially devastated.Assistant U.S. Attorney Jessica Masella said 98 to 99 percent of investors money had been recovered, and the government sent the judge a letter citing the role Greenwoods substantial cooperation had played in the prosecution of another defendant, Stephen Walsh. Walsh eventually pleaded guilty and was sentenced to 20 years in prison.Greenwood and Walsh owned a controlling interest in the Islanders hockey team from 1992 to 1996.Greenwood pleaded guilty in 2010 to securities fraud, aadmitting cheating charities, schools and others out of hundreds of millions of dollars.dddddddddddd He used a portion of the money to buy collectible teddy bears and to invest in $100,000 horses.According to a 2008 magazine article, Greenwoods collection of teddy bears included more than 1,350 Steiff toys. Among them were 74 bears, plus birds, cats, insects, dinosaurs, kangaroos, seals and squirrels.Prosecutors said Walsh and Greenwood carried out the fraud from 1996 through February 2009, cheating institutional investors in particular.During those years, the men operated a securities business while Greenwood lived in North Salem, Connecticut. The businesses included WG Trading Co. LP, based in Greenwich, Connecticut, and Westridge Capital Management Inc., in Santa Barbara, California.Five years ago, Greenwood moved to Southern Pines, North Carolina, where his lawyer said he regularly tutored veterans and performed other charity work.Speaking by phone from prison Wednesday, Greenwood again apologized.I cannot express deeply enough how sorry I am, he said.
