Minnesota Vikings 90 - Man Roster

Since completion of the draft and a wave of undrafted signings, the Minnesota Vikings have made a significant signing a few tweaks to bring the offseason roster close to the 90 - man limit. 

The significant signing:

Jauan Jennings, WR

The Vikings needed a third receiver to go with Justin Jefferson and Jordan Addison. Now, they have the best receiving trio in the league. Jauan Jennings gives the Vikings some size and edginess they didn’t have in the receiver room and on the offense. 

Signed:

Smith Vilbert, DL
Bangally Kamara, LB
Terrill Davis, WR
Isaiah Loudermilk, DL

Waived:

Jordan Botelho, OLB
Shaleak Knotts, WR

Smith Vilbert and Bangally Kamara were signed after successful tryouts during the rookie minicamp. After going unselected in the draft, Terrill Davis had tryouts with the San Francisco 49ers and Baltimore Ravens. The Vikings ended his tryout tour. Isaiahh Loudermilk is the veteran addition of the recent roster tweaks. Drafted in the fifth round of the 2021 NFL Draft out of Wisconsin, he had a five-year run with the Pittsburgh Steelers. One of those years was with Brian Flores on the Steelers coaching staff. 

The Vikings currently have 90 players on the roster. Undrafted rookie punter Brett Thorson is one of those players. He’s from Australia and is part of International Pathways Program. As such, he doesn’t count towards the 90 - man roster limit. That leaves a vacancy. Harrison Smith?
