Trayvon Rudolph firma con los Vikings tras una prueba con los Steelers

El receptor abierto Trayvon Rudolph ha firmado con los Minnesota Vikings tras pasar dos días a prueba con los Pittsburgh Steelers. Los Vikings anunciaron el movimiento este jueves por la mañana junto con la firma de otro receptor.

Los Vikings contrataron a Rudolph y al receptor abierto Michael Briscoe, mientras que dieron de baja a Joaquin Davis. Rudolph fue uno de los cinco veteranos que estuvieron a prueba durante el minicampamento obligatorio de Pittsburgh. Sin ser seleccionado en el draft de 2025, Rudolph pasó un tiempo con los Seattle Seahawks pero no ha participado en ningún partido de la NFL. Jugó fútbol americano universitario en Northern Illinois antes de transferirse a Toledo, donde registró 39 recepciones para 435 yardas y dos touchdowns en su última temporada. Los Steelers seleccionaron a Kaden Wetjen para encargarse de las funciones de regreso de balón y han añadido profundidad en la posición de receptor con DK Metcalf, Michael Pittman Jr. y Germie Bernard. Otros tres veteranos que estuvieron a prueba en Pittsburgh permanecen sin equipo.
