The Minnesota Vikings are turning off the lights at the team's new practice facility south of Minneapolis after neighbors complained about the glow.

The Eagan building's north side is nearly 100 feet (30.5 meters) high and lights up with the team's Norseman logo and the words "Twin Cities Orthopedics Performance Center - Home of the Minnesota Vikings."

The NFL team will turn off the lights on the north side of the building between 11 p.m. and 6 a.m. http://www.49ersauthorizedshops.com/authentic-fred-warner-jersey , said Jeff Anderson, team spokesman. The shut-off time will be moved to about midnight when the team hosts night events such as high school games.

The team is "listening to the community," Anderson said.

The other three sides of the facility will remain lit every night, he said.

The Vikings moved into the 277,000-square-foot complex in March. The area includes an indoor practice facility, the team's headquarters and an outdoor stadium.

Mendota Heights residents complained about the lights last month.

City officials found the building complied with city code when it received an initial complaint about the lights in February Eric Staal Jersey , said Tom Garrison, Eagan spokesman.

"Brightness levels are the same as other wall signage in Eagan," Garrison said.

The new solution was an "internal team decision," said Lester Bagley, the Vikings' executive vice president of public affairs.

"We'd like to be collaborative and compromise," Bagley said.

Resident Nancy Commerford said the decision will help make her street feel less like a circus.

"If I wake up in the middle of the night now I won't see the lights Morgan Rielly Jersey ," Commerford said. "Having them compromise like this makes my day."

The team expects the change to occur this weekend.


ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. (AP) — The Buffalo Bills have signed defensive end Nate Orchard in an ongoing bid to upgrade their pass rush after an embarrassing season-opening loss at Baltimore.

The Bills also announced Monday they have released defensive tackle Adolphus Washington, the team’s 2016 third-round draft pick.

Orchard had five sacks in 34 games over the previous three seasons with Cleveland. He was selected by the Browns in the second round of the 2015 draft and cut by Cleveland on Sept. 1.

The move comes a day after Buffalo’s defense struggled by giving up six touchdowns and sacked Ravens starter Joe Flacco once in a 47-3 loss at Baltimore. It was the second-most lopsided loss in Bills history.

Washington started 21 games over his first two seasons but became the odd-man out as part of an offseason overhaul. Buffalo signed veteran defensive tackle Star Lotulelei in free agency and selected Stanford’s Harrison Phillips in this year’s draft.

Buffalo hosts the Los Angeles Chargers on Sunday.
