Latest Minnesota Vikings Buzz

The Bengals CB room is one to watch for Sunday. Cam Taylor-Britt was DNP with a hamstring. DJ Turner was limited with a hamstring. The two CBs behind them are DJ Ivey and Marco Wilson. The Vikings have Justin Jefferson.

Even after a loss, @JJettas2 took the time to say hello to a ton of young @Vikings fans 🫶

Vikings make their roster moves official

Many have asked about the lack of quick game, so got into some of that here.

The last time that Jim Nantz called a Vikings win, Tony Romo was still an active player. He was in the booth with Phil Simms when he called their win over Pittsburgh at Wembley Stadium in 2013.

Jags signed S Kahlef Hailassie off the Vikings practice squad. Vikings were happy to keep him after roster cuts, so probably a sharp move from JAX.

The Jags signed Hailassie, the former corner who’d safety during training camp, off the #Vikings’ practice squad

From @GMFB: Updates on #Rams coach Sean McVay's foot(!?), #Bills QB Josh Allen, the #Vikings myriad of injuries at important positions, and the #Commanders adding pass-rusher Preston Smith.

What are your #Vikings questions this week? Leave them here, and we’ll answer them in the Access Vikings newsletter or mailbag episode of the podcast (both out Friday).

.@Vikings WR Justin Jefferson lands at No. 9 on the NFL Top 100 Players of 2025! @NFLFilms @JJettas2

The #Vikings are putting Aaron Jones on injured reserve with the hamstring strain he sustained on Sunday. The move will keep Jones out through the bye week, and clear room on the active roster for Desmond Ridder. Cam Akers could be a practice squad elevation on Sunday.

Jordan Mason moves up to the top of the depth chart, with Zavier Scott and now Cam Akers behind him. Vikings lose their QB1 and RB1 for at least a few weeks. We will see how long C Ryan Kelly is out, and LT Christian Darrisaw is not a lock for Sunday, either. Phew…

Fire up Jordan Mason.

Jordan Mason has 24 carries over the first two games and now becomes RB1. The team is also bringing back Cam Akers on the practice squad.

The Vikings are placing RB Aaron Jones on injured reserve with the hamstring injury, per source. Signing RB Cam Akers to the practice squad.

The Vikings are placing starting RB Aaron Jones on Injured Reserve, knocking him out four games, per me and @TomPelissero. He has a hamstring injury. Jordan Mason now becomes RB1. Cam Akers is signing to the practice squad.

The #Vikings are placing starting RB Aaron Jones on injured reserve, sources tell me and @RapSheet. Jones was ruled out of Sunday’s game because of a hamstring injury. Now he’s out for at least four more games.

Source: Vikings placed RB Aaron Jones on injured reserve due to his hamstring injury. He’s now out a minimum of four weeks.

A tradition unlike any other: the #Vikings are adding Cam Akers to the practice squad, per source. Third consecutive year they’ve acquired the running back.

𝗕𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴: Cam Akers to sign with the Vikings. A massive pickup with Aaron Jones out 🔥

With Aaron Jones suffering a hamstring injury, free-agent RB Cam Akers is expected to re-sign with the Vikings.

By signing Desmond Ridder to the 53-man roster, not the practice squad, the #Vikings gain flexibility to potentially have an experienced starter as QB2, rather than press undrafted rookie Max Brosmer into action if something happens to Carson Wentz.
