Latest Vikings News
Kyler Murray : Sharing reps with McCarthy
Murray was on the field for the first snaps of team drills during Tuesday's mandatory minicamp session, Kevin Seifert of ESPN reports. Though Murray was out there first Tuesday, Seifert notes that fellow QB J.J. McCarthy took about an equal number of snaps with the starters, which was also the case during the media-access portions of the Vikings' OTAs. At this stage, a decision on who will emerge as the team's starter doesn't appear imminent, with Murray acknowledging that sharing reps with McCarthy has been challenging as he adjusts to a new offensive system. For his part, Seifert considers Murray the favorite to win the top job, but McCarthy -- who Minnesota took 10th overall in the 2024 NFL Draft -- still has time to change that narrative ahead of Week 1.
Trayvon Rudolph : Bound for Minnesota
The Vikings signed Rudolph on Thursday, Rob Kleifield of the team's official site reports. A little over a week after he was waived by Seattle, Rudolph is now getting another shot with a new club. The undrafted rookie is not physically imposing, but he did demonstrate some ability as a kick returner at Toledo, which could help him get more opportunities early on.
Michael Briscoe : Going to Twin Cities
Minnesota signed Briscoe (undisclosed) on Thursday, Rob Kleifield of the Vikings' official site reports. There were questions about Briscoe's health when he was waived by Seattle in May, but he's presumably in good shape now. The undrafted rookie boasts good size, and he caught 43 passes for 779 yards and seven touchdowns in his senior season at Cal Poly in 2025.
Isaiahh Loudermilk : Links up with Vikings
Loudermilk signed with the Vikings on Thursday. Loudermilk suffered a high-ankle sprain in Week 2 of the 2025 season and never returned to action. The 2021 fifth-round pick out of Wisconsin spent five years with the Steelers in a reserve role, as he never surpassed 275 defensive snaps or 23 tackles -- both marks he set in his rookie year. Loudermilk will add depth to the Vikings' stout defensive line.
Jauan Jennings : Inks deal with Minnesota
Jennings and the Vikings agreed on a one-year, $13 million contract Thursday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports. Jennings will head to Minnesota after spending the first six years of his NFL career with the 49ers, five of which were as a member of the team's active roster. The wide receiver most recently caught 55 of 90 targets for 643 yards and a career-high nine touchdowns over 15 regular-season games in 2025. He now will join a Vikings roster that has a pair of former first-round picks in Justin Jefferson and Jordan Addison as anchors in the WR room, but Jennings will provide the team with a formidable trio at the position.
Eric Johnson : Signs deal with Minnesota
The Vikings signed Johnson on Wednesday, Lindsey Young of the team's official site reports. The details of the contract are unknown at this point, but Johnson will be linking up with his third team in as many years. He played a depth role on the interior of Indianapolis' defensive line in 2025, logging 131 defensive snaps over 12 games. He joins rookie first-rounder Caleb Banks (foot) and rookie third-rounder Domonique Orange as recent acquisitions meant to beef up Minnesota's defensive front.
Jordan Addison : Fifth-year option made official
The Vikings exercised Addison's fifth-year option Monday. Vikings EVP of football operations Rob Brzezinski said last month that the team would be making this move, and it's now official. Addison will earn $18 million in 2027 as a result. The 23rd overall pick in the 2023 Draft, Addison has shown flashes of big-time playmaking ability during his first three seasons, but he also was a victim of extremely poor quarterback play during the 2025 campaign. With Kyler Murray now in town to compete with J.J. McCarthy (hand), the Vikings are banking on more competency under center, which should obviously help Justin Jefferson and Addison produce better numbers in the box score.
Ivan Pace : Signs as restricted free agent
Pace signed a one-year contract with the Vikings on Monday. No organization submitted a better offer sheet for Pace's services in the restricted free agency window. As such, the linebacker has signed a one-year, $3.5 million contract to remain with the Vikings through the 2026 season. The 25-year-old was a reliable depth piece in 2025, playing heavy snaps to start the year before returning to the reserve role that he will likely maintain in 2026.
