Minnesota has acted swiftly to add a No. 1 receiver for young QB Tarvaris Jackson.
The Vikings have come to terms on a six-year deal with Bernard Berrian, sources have told FOXSports.com. The worth of the deal is not yet known.
Berrian was considered the No. 2 receiver on the open market behind Randy Moss. The Chicago Bears wanted to retain Berrian, who was the team's deep threat. But in the end, the deal Minnesota offered was too good to pass up.
With Berrian now gone, the Bears may look to Devin Hester to stretch the field in the passing game.
