The Vikings made their first wave of roster cuts today, announcing that the following 14 players have been cut:
13 of these 14 players were waived, with A.J. Green III representing the only player who was technically released. The defensive back spent the first four seasons of his career in Cleveland, collecting 40 tackles and a pair of interceptions. He caught on with the Vikings via a reserve/futures contract back in January.
Matt Corral will now look to continue his career elsewhere. The former third-round pick caught on with the Vikings earlier this month following J.J. McCarthy‘s season-ending injury, but the Vikings will temporarily move forward with a QB grouping of Sam Darnold, Nick Mullens, and Jaren Hall. Corral still hasn’t gotten into a regular season game in stints with the Panthers and Patriots, although he did show some promise during his brief stint in the UFL.
DeWayne McBride was a seventh-round pick by the Vikings just last year, but he ended up spending the majority of his rookie campaign on the practice squad. There’s a chance he follows a similar path in 2024, although he’ll still only be fifth on the organization’s RB depth chart. McBride had a standout career at UAB, including 2021 and 2022 campaigns where he compiled 3,084 yards and 32 touchdowns.

The Chiefs have ruled out running back Jerick McKinnon for tomorrow’s game against the Packers, necessitating some extra depth at the position. The team will turn to Prince, an undrafted free agent who has spent the entire season on Kansas City’s practice squad. Prince had a breakout season at Tulsa in 2022, finishing with 813 yards from scrimmage and six touchdowns.
Winfrey, a 2022 fourth-round pick, was cut by the Browns last July after being investigated for pulling a gun on a woman. He joined the Jets practice squad in early November and will finally earn his first promotion of the season. Winfrey got into 13 games for Cleveland last year, collecting 22 tackles and 0.5 sacks.
At age 36, Irvin will be making his debut for a sixth NFL team. The veteran pass rusher signed with Detroit midway through November and will finally have a chance to extend his streak of regular season appearances to 12 straight years. The only absence on the Lions’ front-seven will be linebacker Alex Anzalone, so Detroit may be looking to stand Irvin up to help the team’s depth at linebacker.
