Your Minnesota Vikings 53-Man Roster (for the next, oh, 24 hours or so)

Card subject to change

NFL: AUG 21 Preseason - Colts at Vikings

The dust has settled, the smoke has cleared, and only about three hours after the league-mandated deadline, we finally know the full 53-man roster of the Minnesota Vikings. Well, what will be their 53-man roster for a day or so until they start making more moves.

Without any further ado, here’s what it all looks like. Keep in mind that newly acquired tight end Chris Herndon is not listed on the 53 because the trade for him was not made official before the deadline. He will officially be a Viking tomorrow. Players with a * are one that we know are dealing with injuries and can now be placed on short-term IR starting tomorrow.
