Former Vikings Star Heads to Dallas for Playoffs

Earlier this week, the Buffalo Bills released former Vikings All-Pro CB Xavier Rhodes after playing him in just two games this season. In his place, they signed S Jared Mayden. Now, about three days later, the Dallas Cowboys snagged the former Vikings star by signing him to their practice squad just before the playoffs get started.

Rhodes obviously got his NFL career started in Minnesota when the Vikings drafted him 25th overall in the 2013 Draft. He appeared in 13 games as a rookie, making six starts at corner for the Vikings.
