After brandishing a “clean slate” on the Week 1 injury report, the Minnesota Vikings had one notable player who appears […]
This year’s NFL offseason is shaping up to be one of the most memorable in recent history. Not only have CBA talks advanced, the Combine shed light on an incredibly deep wide receiver class and an unprecedented group of quarterbacks including Dak Prescott, Tom Brady, Drew Brees, Philip Rivers and Teddy Bridgewater is set to hit free agency. It’s an offseason that has the potential to change the landscape of the NFL.
According to Tom Pelissero of the NFL Network, the Vikings are expected to call up receiver Alexander Hollins from the practice squad to the 53-man roster for tonight’s game against the Seattle Seahawks.
With the bye week in the rearview mirror, preparations for the Vikings’ Monday Night matchup against the Seahawks began on Tuesday morning. Multiple transactions were announced by the team and with players getting back to practice, things on the injury front appeared to take shape.
The Minnesota Vikings announced this morning that linebacker Ben Gedeon (concussion) and guard Josh Kline (foot) will be out for their game this Sunday against the Philadelphia Eagles.
In only four days the Vikings roster will be cut down from 88 players to 53. By 3pm (CST) on Saturday the regular season squad, along with a 10-man practice squad, will be assembled. The team began trimming the fat on Tuesday, releasing cornerback Bene Benwikere and wide receiver Jordan Taylor. With roster cuts soon approaching, let’s take a final look at how the final 53 could unfold.
From the outside looking in, it may have seemed like a quiet offseason for the Vikings. Beyond re-signing Anthony Barr there were no major signings in free agency, the team didn’t lose any superstars and the core personnel remained quite similar to last year. Yet, behind the steel curtain, a lot went down.
The Minnesota Vikings made four transactions in the day leading up to training camp. They waived running back Roc Thomas and added guard Tiano Pupungatoa, then waived safety Micah Abernathy and acquired running back De’Angelo Henderson. Now, a few days into training camp, the team roster sits at an offseason maximum 90 players. To get caught up on who’s all on the team, let’s take a look at the current players that comprise the roster. To make things a little more interesting, I’ve noted which players will become free agents following the season and also added my 53-man projection. The Vikings will trim down the roster to 53 players on August 31st (3pm CST deadline).
