Kenny Willekes’ time with the Minnesota Vikings has come to an end with the team waiving him on Thursday. In a corresponding move, the Vikings have signed veteran defensive end Jonathan Bullard.
The team is desperately seeking to beef up their pass rush this season, and Willekes simply hasn’t been available on the field.
A knee injury ruined his rookie campaign in 2020, and he only played in six games in 2021. And according to the team’s social media account, Willekes was released with an injury designation. So the team went out and signed a veteran with experience to take his place.
