Minnesota Vikings Training Camp Roster

The Minnesota Vikings will open training camp and be on the field today. While the players won’t be in pads until Monday, football is finally back. 

The days before training camp often bring a few roster tweaks. Yesterday was that sort of day. The Vikings waived a couple undrafted players and signed a couple players with NFL experience, one with considerable NFL experience. 

Waived:

Keli Lawson, LB

Luke Wysong, WR

Signed

Jamal Adams, LB

Jordan Mims, RB

Jamal Adams is a familiar name at an unfamiliar position. Honestly, Adams may have come into the league as a safety but he was always at his best near the line of scrimmage. He was a menace coming after the quarterback rather than reacting to him. In his best years, he simple wrecked things behind, on, and around the line of scrimmage. The Vikings leave no doubt to their plans for Adams as he’s listed as a linebacker and has the #54 on his jersey. Jordan Mims, and his 20 carries for the New Orleans Saints in 2024, gives the Vikings a little more experience in the running back room. 

As the Vikings step on the field for training camp, I’m still waiting (hoping) for that Harrison Smith return.
