Another day, another few changes for the Minnesota Vikings and the reserve/COVID-19 list. We’ll start with the bad news first.
The Vikings added defensive tackle Armon Watts to the COVID-19 list on Tuesday. Watts, a sixth-round pick of the Vikings in 2019, appeared in seven games for the Vikings as a rookie. He collected 1.5 sacks and was injured in the season finale against the Bears, with the team putting him on Injured Reserve before the playoffs got underway. He’s expected to make a big push for playing time on the interior this season with Linval Joseph gone and Michael Pierce opting out.
