Randy Moss returned to Winter Park on Wednesday for the first time since he was cut by the Vikings in 2010.
And the team had something planned for him.
The Vikings surprised both franchise legends in Moss and Ahmad Rashad by announcing both would be inducted into the team's ring of honor this season.
Moss, second in Vikings franchise history with 91 touchdowns, arrived at Winter Park with a meeting on the docket to discuss his role in the upcoming Super Bowl in Minneapolis. To get there, he walked through the hallway that displayed the current ring of honor members from Cris Carter to Paul Krause.
On his way out, Moss noticed something different.
"I know my history, I know my players. So when I come out of the meeting, I'm like hold on – wait a minute – did y'all just put this up here?" Moss said referring to his own jersey hanging on the wall. "It's definitely humbling; I'm speechless."
During an 11-minute press conference, Moss covered more ground than even he's used to while holding court next to the Vikings practice fields on Wednesday.
The 40-year-old Moss, who was first traded out of Minnesota to Oakland in 2005 only to return via trade in 2010 before being released shortly after, said he would've liked to have spent his entire career in purple.
