EDEN PRAIRIE, Minn. — The Vikings announced on Friday that the team has asigned free agent offensive tackle Riley Reiff.
The 28-year-old Reiff was the 23rd overall pick in the 2012 NFL Draft by the Detroit Lions. Reiff, who is entering his sixth professional season, has appeared in 77 games with 69 career starts.
Reiff was Detroit’s starting left tackle from 2013-2015 before switching to the right side in 2016. He helped the Lions make the playoffs as a Wild Card team with a 9-7 record.
The durable and versatile tackle has missed three games over the past four seasons since becoming a full-time starter.
