Vikings TE: Media Member Took My Gloves, Now They're On Ebay

MINNEAPOLIS — Following his game-winning, overtime touchdown to beat the New Orleans Saints Sunday, Minnesota Vikings tight end Kyle Rudolph gave his now-famous gloves away to a media member who asked for them.

According to Rudolph, the media member said the gloves would go to a charity event. With this in mind, the legendary Vikings player offered to sign them.

The gloves, it appears, weren't given to a charity event. Instead, they were sold on eBay days later.

Rudolph addressed the incident on Twitter Wednesday, saying "it's disappointing" how it turned out.

The gloves were sold for $375.50 plus shipping.

"And to clarify it was not anyone I knew," Rudolph added. "so wasn't a local reporter I see daily or national reporter. Locker room was a zoo, he asked for them, I said of course and even offered to sign them..."

The item was located in Indiana at the time of auction, according to the seller. They were apparently sold by user gamegear777, who has many NFL items currently for sale.

However, the story may end in a positive fashion. The fan who purchased the gloves offered to donate them to charity.
