Yuck!! I mean YUCK!!!!!!!

I don't get the fascination with Beebe...

Hollins at least showed the ability to get open in a few games last year... seems like he would help stretch the field.

Rachelle♡@rahugsxo
I just want someone to love me the way the Vikings love Chad Beebe.

Arif Hasan, coach of throwing left American footballTrophy@ArifHasanNFL

"Beebe if healthy" is a big if

2014: arm (broken "in half")
2016: meniscus (torn)/hamstring ("popped off" the tibia)
2017: abdomen/shoulder/concussion
2018: hamstring (strain)
2019: ankle (torn ligaments)

In 4 years, his team has played in 57 games. He has played in 15 of them.

Source, though, does believe that former #Vikings safety George Iloka, who recently worked out for them, is indeed still in the mix for a possible roster spot. Iloka played for them in 2018.

spielman is hoping cleveland cuts sendejo....

Considering our extreme lack of depth at the S position I'm real surprised we didn't resign him

Sean Davis would be a nice pickup.

(Chris Tomasson)

According to espn and NFL.com he has not made a roster since we cut him in 2018.

This guy fell off a cliff skill wise at like 27-28 years old.

The deadline has come and gone, but we haven't got the roster yet right?

I wish the Beebe was launched and we kept Metellus. Seven receivers are good if you play a run and shoot offense.

Just woke up from my afternoon nap. I need to catch up.

Nevelle Clarke's father, Norman Clarke, reports that the #Vikings undrafted rookie cornerback was waived.
Final five #Vikings cuts: David Reese II, Quartney Davis, Dillon Mitchell, Blake Brandel, Nate Meadors

a guy that'll get injured in the first three games

a guy that's there only to return kicks/punts

a guy that's a special team's ace

Our final roster looks to be really light in the interior offensive and defensive lines. That's not good.

This is the entire list of players released and (for now) retained on the 53 man roster. I see 11 defensive linemen and 2 safeties. That will have to be changed.

The #Vikings drafted six players in the sixth and seventh round this year. None of them made the 53-man roster.

Blake Brandel, Josh Metellus, Nate Stanley, Brian Cole II, and Kyle Hinton were cut. Kenny Willekes is on IR.

Only one of 12 UDFAs made the team: WR Dan Chisena.
