Travis Toivonen: Joins Vikings' practice squad

The Vikings signed Toivonen to their practice squad Thursday, Craig Peters of the team's official site reports.

Toivonen was waived by the Giants during the recent wave of roster cuts, but the 6-foot-4, 212-pounder will now provide Minnesota with added wideout depth and is a candidate for a promotion to the active roster should injuries hit the team's wide receiver unit.
