Minnesota Vikings Depth Chart Revisited

Recent additions of familiar players has forced an updated Minnesota Vikings Depth Chart. Receiver Laquon Treadwell and punt returner Marcus Sherels are back with the team. Chad Beebe tore ligaments in one of his ankles last Sunday. He's now on injured reserve and hoping that he won't need surgery. There's a chance that he might return before the season's done. For now, he's not available and the Vikings needed two players to replace one.

The Vikings "official" depth chart lists Hercules Mata'afa behind Jalyn Holmes at defensive tackle. Through three games that hasn't been the case. Mata'afa has been active for all three games. Holmes has not.

With the late week promotion of receiver Davion Davis at the expense of cornerback Nate Meadors the offense:defense split has returned to an even 25:25.
