The Vikings added wide receiver Tajae Sharpe to their roster on Wednesday, giving them another veteran receiver who can compete with Bisi Johnson for the No. 2 receiver spot and help add some depth behind Adam Thielen following last week’s Stefon Diggs trade.
The former Titans receiver agreed to a one-year deal with the Vikings, an NFL source confirmed. He caught 25 passes for 329 yards and a career-high four touchdowns in Tennessee last year, though his playing time dwindled and his targets slipped in a run-heavy offense in 2019.
Sharpe’s busiest season was his rookie year in 2016, when he caught seven passes for 76 yards in his first NFL game against the Vikings and finished the season with 41 catches for 522 and two touchdowns after the Titans drafted him in the fifth round that year.
