After wrapping up their rookie mini-camp this past weekend, the Minnesota Vikings have bolstered their 90-man roster by signing two promising undrafted free agents. The Vikings announced on Monday that linebacker Matt Harmon from Kent State and defensive lineman Elijah Williams from Morgan State have earned spots on the team. Both players were invited for a tryout during the camp and made enough of an impression to land these coveted positions.

Let’s break down their journey: Harmon, standing tall at 6-foot-6 and weighing in at 240 pounds, delivered a solid performance at Kent State last season with 56 tackles, including 6.5 tackles for a loss, and two sacks. His stature and stats indicate a player with potential to disrupt offensive lines and create pivotal plays.

On the other hand, Williams comes with an impressive collegiate resume. At 6-foot-3 and 270 pounds, he left a sizable mark at Morgan State, accumulating 52 tackles for a loss and 31 sacks over 42 games. His knack for getting to the quarterback and sifting through the offensive line hints at his potential to become a challenging matchup for opponents.

However, not every prospect left camp with a contract in hand. Montigo Moss, son of legendary Vikings wide receiver Randy Moss, was also part of the rookie mini-camp.

Despite his efforts, the University of Maine wideout wasn’t offered a spot on Minnesota’s roster. While it may be a setback, it doesn’t signal the end for Moss; there’s always the possibility the Vikings, or another NFL team, could take notice and offer him another opportunity down the line.

With these latest signings, the Vikings have hit their preseason limit of 90 players. Interestingly, they currently have 91 on the books due to a special roster exemption for punter Oscar Chapman, who is participating under the NFL’s International Player Pathway Program as an Australian native. This gives him a unique spot to showcase his skills alongside the stacked roster.

The Vikings’ recent transactions showcase the intense competition and high stakes of making it in the NFL, where every camp and every snap can define a player’s future in the league.
