Minnesota Vikings 64-Man Roster

Every offseason brings changes. It feels like this offseason has brought more change than usual to the Minnesota Vikings roster. Perhaps that’s just because long-time franchise fixtures like Kirk Cousins and Danielle Hunter have moved to new teams. About one week into the offseason and the signing flurry of free agency, the Vikings roster has 64 players. At 11 players, receiver is the largest position group. At the other end, inside and outside linebacker have only four players each. Defensive line is probably the position group most in need of upgrades. Unless the promising Jaquelin Roy emerges in his second season or new signee Jerry Tillery plays to his one-time first round draft status, the Vikings will struggle to field a solid defensive front. Fortunately, it’s only March. Here’s an early look at the roster of the Minnesota Vikings.
