Vikings activate TE Ben Ellefson from injured reserve

The Minnesota Vikings made a couple of roster moves on Wednesday afternoon as they started their preparations for this week’s contest against the New York Jets.

The team has announced that they have brought tight end Ben Ellefson back from injured reserve. In order to make room for him on the main roster, the team placed cornerback Andrew Booth Jr. on injured reserve, as Booth will now be out for the season following knee surgery.

Ellefson went on injured reserve with a groin injury back in Week 4. Prior to that, he had been serving as the team’s #3 tight end behind Irv Smith Jr.
