The Minnesota Vikings are signing Kearney graduate and free agent linebacker Cale Garrett to the practice squad.

The move comes after the Vikings elevated linebacker Hardy Nickerson to the active roster. Nickerson was on the practice squad before that, so the Vikings needed to bring in another linebacker for that role.

Garrett, a Missouri product, signed with the Titans as an undrafted free agent this offseason. He ended up being cut from the 53-man roster. Then, he didn’t sign to Tennessee’s practice squad. This move will allow Garrett to see if he can surprise some people and work his way up the Vikings.
