The Minnesota Vikings have officially announced the signing of 19 undrafted free agents in the wake of the 2026 NFL Draft coming to an end. Here is the full list, courtesy of a release sent out by the team.
The biggest, and possibly the most interesting, name on the list might be Thorson. Yes, I understand that he’s a punter and that he’s technically listed as being a part of the International Player Pathway Program, meaning that if he doesn’t make the roster, the Vikings could keep him on the roster with an exemption. Thorson was also the winner of the Ray Guy Award for the best punter in the nation this past season, and he could give veteran a serious run for his money for the punting job in training camp.
The Vikings signed players including Marcus Allen, Da’Veawn Armstead, Dillon Bell, and Brett Thorson among others.
