Heading into the two-day rookie minicamp, the Minnesota Vikings have officially announced the signings of five rookie contracts.
So that officially makes half of the Vikings 2022 NFL draft class now under contract with the team.
The names on the list includes safety Lewis Cine, receiver Jalen Nailor, tight end Nick Muse, defensive end Esezi Otomewo and running back Ty Chandler.
According to the Pioneer Press’ Chris Tomasson, offensive guard Ed Ingram and linebacker Brian Asamoah are not expected to agree to terms before minicamp, which means the two players will be participating under the injury protection agreement.
Source says that in addition to second-round pick Ed Ingram, #Vikings third-round pick linebacker Brian Asamoah, also expected to begin rookie minicamp Friday under an injury protection agreement. https://t.co/EcSROr5Fhn
