The Minnesota Vikings have continued to make roster moves. According to NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero, the Vikings have waived wide receiver Trishton Jackson.
The wide receiver room was a very competitive one in training camp this year. Justin Jefferson, K.J. Osborn and Jordan Addison were all guaranteed to make the roster but after that it was a real battle.
Jackson was fighting for a roster spot with Jalen Reagor, Brandon Powell, Jalen Nailor and Lucky Jackson. It was a hard-fought battle and Jackson is a likely practice squad candidate.
Jackson suffered a minor injury during training camp and missed a short amount of time and it hindered his preseason production. He caught three passes for 29 yards.
Like last season, the Vikings could be targeting Jackson for the practice squad.
