• Vikings Roster Battles To Heat Up: Forness’ Bold 53-Man Projections

Christian Darrisaw reported to Vikings camp but wasn’t placed on the PUP list yet, unlike others. Forness speculates he might not have completed his physical, or he’s fully ready—leaning toward the former due to the team’s conservative injury approach. He could still end up on PUP/IR, missing at least four games; it’s a tidbit to monitor as camp begins. | Photo by Ric Tapia/Getty Images Ty...2025

• Josh Oliver Receives High Praise from ESPN

Photo by Kevin Sabitus/Getty Images Maybe the Vikings know something Tight end Josh Oliver recently got a pretty impressive contract extension from the Minnesota Vikings, and it may have struck a lot of people as unusual given that he wasn’t particularly productive based on the numbers that we can see. However, there’s a reason that Kwesi Adofo-Mensah and company opened the checkbook for h...2025

• Minnesota Vikings News and Links: Is JJ McCarthy Ahead Of The Curve?

Photo by Stephen Maturen/Getty Images He has spent a year learning the offense! I am a firm believer in giving a young QB at least two years of starts (I would do three years if I am running things) before attempting to make a decision on their long term prospects with the team. Young QBs need time and will make mistakes like all QBs do. Patience is the key. The hopes are obviously very hi...2025
