The fourth and final preseason game is only hours away, and the roster will then be finalized this weekend. Most starters won’t play tonight, but this matchup will still be huge for several Vikings hopefuls.
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.
Welcome to the Minnesota Vikings Training Camp Diary! Here, you’ll find everything you need to know about the Vikings’ training camp practices on August 11 in an easy-to-read bullet form.
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).
