Trayvon Rudolph assina com os Vikings após período de testes nos Steelers

O wide receiver Trayvon Rudolph assinou com o Minnesota Vikings após passar dois dias em testes no Pittsburgh Steelers. A movimentação foi anunciada pelos Vikings na manhã de quinta-feira, juntamente com a contratação de outro recebedor.

Os Vikings contrataram Rudolph e o wide receiver Michael Briscoe, enquanto dispensaram Joaquin Davis. Rudolph foi um dos cinco veteranos que realizaram testes durante o minicamp obrigatório de Pittsburgh. Não selecionado no draft de 2025, Rudolph teve uma passagem pelo Seattle Seahawks, mas não chegou a atuar em um jogo da NFL. Ele jogou futebol americano universitário pela Northern Illinois antes de se transferir para Toledo, onde registrou 39 recepções para 435 jardas e dois touchdowns em sua última temporada. Os Steelers recrutaram Kaden Wetjen para as funções de retorno e reforçaram a profundidade na posição de recebedor com DK Metcalf, Michael Pittman Jr. e Germie Bernard. Outros três jogadores veteranos que participaram dos testes em Pittsburgh permanecem sem contrato.
