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.

The 25 year-old received limited touches with Dalvin Cook, Latavius Murray and Mike Boone ahead of him on the depth chart. In seven games he hauled in one catch for 10 yards.

First, let me start off by saying I get it. Short passes equate to run plays, “data” shows the Vikings shouldn’t try to the ball run more, rushing isn’t as efficient passing…. It’s science, or whatever. How can you argue that, right?While all of that may be true, I really don’t care.The Vikings need to establish the run, and to me there’s no debating the matter.
