Many Minnesota fans were upset with the kicker, so to cheer Walsh up, a group of first graders wrote him letters of encouragement, including compliments like “you are handsome” and “I hope the Vikings win the Super Bowl this year.”
Now the four-year veteran is returning the favor to the kids with a visit to their classroom on Thursday. Walsh called the cards “very touching” while addressing the class at Northpoint Elementary.
