  Vikings | Minnesota to have open competition at QB    Mon May 11, 01:41 PM

Minnesota Vikings QB Kyler Murray and QB J.J. McCarthy will have an open competition for the starting quarterback job during offseason workouts and training camp, according to NFL Network's Tom Pelissero.

Footballguys view: "From everything that I've understood, it is truly wide open," Pelissero said on The Rich Eisen Show. "They're keeping an open mind as a coaching staff." McCarthy struggled in his two seasons since the Vikings chose him 10th overall in the 2024 NFL Draft. Some of his struggles have been self-inflicted (12 interceptions in 10 games), while others have been the result of injuries. Those struggles are why Murray, a two-time Pro Bowler with seven seasons of experience, has been widely viewed as the unanointed starter. Even if we consider Murray the favorite, it's a situation we'll have to monitor.

  Vikings | Demond Claiborne under contract    Sat May 9, 02:27 PM

Minnesota Vikings sixth-round draft choice RB Demond Claiborne signed a four-year contract with the Vikings Friday, May 8. Financial terms were not disclosed.

Footballguys view: Claiborne is a compact, shifty back with speed who is comparable to Devonta Freeman. The Vikings top two backs will be free agents next year, and Aaron Jones has missed at least five games in two of the last three seasons. Expect Claiborne to get a chance to show what he can do at some point this season, which could secure him a role in the Vikings backfield going forward.

  Vikings | Jauan Jennings agrees to deal with Minnesota    Fri May 8, 01:21 AM

Free agent WR Jauan Jennings (49ers) has reached an agreement with the Minnesota Vikings on a one-year, $13 million deal.

Footballguys view: It will be interesting to see Jennings on the field with the Vikings behind Justin Jefferson and Jordan Addison. With Jennings ability as a blocker, he doesn't need to come off the field. We'll likely see him settle in as a WR4/deep flex option for Fantasy GMs in 2026.

  Vikings | Minnesota requests interview with John McKay    Thu May 7, 01:33 PM

The Minnesota Vikings have requested an interview with Los Angeles Rams assistant general manager John McKay for their general manager vacancy on Tuesday, May 7.

Footballguys view: McKay has learned under Les Snead, one of the most respected GMs in all of football, and he's got a connection with Vikings HC Kevin O'Connell. With the previous working relationship and creativity that McKay will likely bring with him to his next gig, the Vikings might have a front-runner in their search for a new general manager.

The Minnesota Vikings have requested an interview with San Francisco 49ers assistant general manager RJ Gillen for their general manager vacancy on Tuesday, May 7.

Footballguys view: Gillen has spent nearly the last decade working his way up the ranks in the 49ers front office. Last year was the first season Gillen served as the team's assistant GM. The Vikings need a new GM after firing Kwesi Adofo-Mensah on January 30, and now Adofo-Mensah has rejoined the 49ers where he previously worked from 2013-2020.

  Vikings | Free Agent WR Jauan Jennings to Visit Vikings     Tue Apr 28, 03:05 PM

49ers free-agent wide receiver Jauan Jennings is visiting tonight and Wednesday with the Minnesota Vikings, a source tells ESPN's Adam Schefter.

Footballguys view: Jennings, 28, had spent his entire career with the 49ers, with the club having selected him in the seventh round of the 2020 draft. Jennings played 75 games with 32 starts for San Francisco, including 55 receptions for 643 yards with nine touchdowns in 2025. The Vikings did not select a receiver in this year's draft over the weekend, which puts them in the market for more depth at the position. The Dolphins are also said to be interested. But Miami doesn't appear to have the cap room necessary to be a viable bidder.

  Vikings | Jordan Addison's option picked up    Mon Apr 27, 01:09 PM

Minnesota Vikings WR Jordan Addison had his fifth-year option picked up Monday, April 27.

Footballguys view: Addison is now set to make $18 million guaranteed in the final year of his rookie deal. The No. 23 overall pick of the 2023 draft, Addison has been productive in each of his three seasons, playing alongside one of the league's top receivers in Justin Jefferson. In 2025, Addison caught 42 passes for 610 yards with three touchdowns in 14 games. Over the course of his three seasons, Addison has 175 receptions for 2,396 yards with 22 touchdowns. While he's best viewed as a fantasy WR4, having Kyler Murray as his QB could push Addison closer to WR3 territory.
