Signs are pointing to Brandon Fusco moving back to right guard, and that’s where he wants to be.

After the Vikings signed Alex Boone to a four-year, $26.8 million contract last week, a source said the plan is to start him at left guard and return Fusco to right guard after he struggled on the left side in 2015. Boone said left guard is his best position and where he prefers to play.

“That’s fine with me,” Fusco said Wednesday. ““That’s where I’m most comfortable. I’m willing to go back to the right and get back to where I was playing. I’ll do whatever they tell me to do, but hopefully right guard is the thing I’ll be doing, and I’m looking forward to it.”

Also Wednesday, the Vikings re-signed running back Matt Asiata to a one-year contract. He had talked earlier this month about really wanting to return.

Fusco said he hasn’t heard directly from the Vikings, who are limited with what they can talk to him about until spring workouts. But Fusco said he has read media reports, and he saw Boone’s comment last week.

“I’m naturally a lefty,” Boone said. “I feel more comfortable on the left side. I can play both (guard spots), obviously. I can play center, if you need me to, honestly, but I (prefer) left guard.”

Fusco joined the Vikings in 2011 and moved into the starting lineup at right guard in 2012. His play was good enough to earn him a five-year, $25 million contract extension in September 2014.

However, Fusco missed the bulk of that season after tearing a pectoral muscle in the third game, and then was moved to left guard during 2015 spring workouts. He doesn’t deny his play fell off last season.

“I was so used to playing right guard for so many years and then just coming off the injury, I wasn’t at full strength most of the season,” Fusco said. “With all the little things that go into it, everything was backward (with the change). I felt like I struggled for the most part. … I started getting better toward the end, but I just really never found my comfort level, I guess.”

After Fusco shifted sides, Mike Harris moved from tackle to become the starting right guard. Harris had a strong season and re-signed on a one-year deal, but now he likely will have to compete with Fusco for the starting job.

“That’s part of the game,” Fusco said. “Guys competing is what makes you better. They’re going to put the best five (offensive linemen) on the field.”

One of those certainly figures to be Boone, Minnesota’s most decorated signing in free agency this month. Fusco likes the move.

“He’s a great player,” he said. “I’m glad to have him here. He’s a physical player, and that’s what Viking football is all about.”

The Vikings hope to add more talent to the offensive line by signing free-agent tackle Andre Smith, who visited the team this week. Smith said he also planned to visit Arizona and has not given a timetable on when he might sign.

Minnesota’s only free-agent move Wednesday was bringing back Asiata, who shares time with Jerick McKinnon in a reserve role behind Adrian Peterson. While appearing in all 16 games, Asiata last season rushed 29 times for 112 yards and caught 19 passes for 132 yards.

Asiata’s best season was 2014. With Peterson missing all but one game, he led Minnesota in rushing with 570 yards.

Vikings general manager Rick Spielman and receivers coach George Stewart attended Baylor pro day. They watched and talked with speedy receiver Corey Coleman, a candidate to go to Minnesota with the No. 23 pick.
