According to the team’s website, the Vikings made several roster moves Tuesday:
- Signed LB Brandon Watts (formerly on practice squad) to the active roster
- Signed FB Blake Renaud and LB Terrance Plummer to the practice squad
- Moved CB Jabari Price to injured reserve
- Released WR Donte Foster from the practice squad
Renaud had previously been on the practice squad, but Minnesota released him in late September in exchange for adding Foster. Foster spent the 2014 season on the practice squad and participated in the 2015 training camp and preseason with Minnesota. Renaud joined the Vikings in May as an undrafted rookie; originally entering college as a linebacker, he made the move to fullback while playing at Boise State.
Up until now, Minnesota’s only fullback on the 2015 active roster has been Zach Line. Although not receiving many snaps thus far, Line has two touchdowns for the Vikings.
Price was re-instated onto the active roster Sept. 21 after serving a two-game suspension, but he has yet to appear in a game this season.
Plummer started the 2015 season as an undrafted free agent with the Washington Redskins. The rookie notched 12 total tackles at middle linebacker during Washington’s preseason, and he was one of the team’s final roster cuts. Plummer spent a couple of weeks on the practice squad, and the Redskins activated the Central Florida alum for three games before waiving him on Oct. 5.
