Vikings bring back a bunch of roster cuts via practice squad, including late-round pick
MINNEAPOLIS -- The Minnesota Vikings have filled out their practice squad – and there are a lot of familiar faces.
In fact, the first 12 players added to the practice squad were on the team's 90-man roster over the offseason before Tuesday's deadline to cut the roster down to 53 players.
Some of the notable practice squad signings include 2023 seventh-round running back DeWayne McBride and offseason acquisition cornerback Joejuan Williams.
Defensive lineman Sheldon Day, who had a good performance in the last preseason game, was also brought back via the practice squad.
