  • Johnny Hekker: Released by Minnesota

    Hekker was released by the Vikings on Sunday, Tom Pelissero of Netflix reports. Hekker, who has been in the NFL since 2012, played for the Rams, Panthers and Titans throughout his career. The 36-year-old most recently signed a deal with the Vikings, though he couldn't win the starting job over rookie Brett Thorson. Hekker is a four-time Pro Bowler, so there is a chance he lands with a new team heading into the 2026-27 campaign.
