Quarterback Sean Mannion agreed to return to the Vikings on a one-year deal, his agent Andrew Kessler confirmed on Tuesday morning.
Mannion, who turns 30 next month, will remain in Minnesota for a fourth straight season as a veteran backup to Kirk Cousins. After spending last year's preseason with the Seahawks, Mannion was released and returned to the Vikings just before the season opener. He made his third career start in the Jan. 2 loss at Green Bay, where Cousins was ruled out after testing positive for COVID-19, and completed 22 of 36 passes for 189 yards and a touchdown.
