Cornerback Charles Gordon has agreed to a one-year deal to return in 2009 to the Minnesota Vikings. Exact terms and numbers of the contract are not yet known. Gordon was the Vikings third cornerback until early November, when he severely injured his ankle in a 28-27 victory over the Green Bay Packers at the Metrodome. Gordon has commented after the 2008 season that he would be ready for training camp. Gordon suffered the ankle injury returning a punt in that game. Gordon had started two of the nine games in which he played in the 2008 season, and saw significant time because he was the nickel cornerback in the Vikings defense.
