Vikings waive Wright, reach camp-max 80
Rookie quarterback Kyle Wright has been waived by the Minnesota Vikings, who reduced their roster to the 80-player maximum ahead of training camp.
EDEN PRAIRIE, Minn. (AP) — Rookie quarterback Kyle Wright has been waived by the Minnesota Vikings, who reduced their roster to the 80-player maximum ahead of training camp.
More shuffling could come before the team reports to Minnesota State, Mankato, on July 23. But the Vikings needed space for their five draft picks, none of whom have yet signed.
Free-agent defensive backs Marcus Griffin and Travis Key were waived by Minnesota earlier this week.
Wright had few opportunities with Tarvaris Jackson, Gus Frerotte, Brooks Bollinger and rookie John David Booty ahead of him on the depth chart.
