Vikings quietly lose a veteran tight end to the NFC West

The Minnesota Vikings are in a tough position these days. They have a team with a lot of offensive talent, but are extreme long shots to make the playoffs or change the direction of the team this season.

With that in mind, there are some players who might want to try their luck with another team. That is especially true for players who are on the Vikings practice squad and might not get many opportunities to make the 53-man roster.

The Los Angeles Rams have signed former Minnesota Vikings tight end Nick Vannett to their active roster.
