Vikings Roster: The 2025 Offseason Edition

The club flopped in the season’s final two games, squandering a homefield advantage at Detroit in Week 18 and a trip to the Divisional Round on Monday.

So, the offseason is here, even if fans hoped the club would tunnel deeper into the tournament. No cigar.

The following depth chart includes active players and free agents, which are noted in each section.
