Minnesota Vikings: tough decisions ahead as cut day looms

The Minnesota Vikings will be forced to make some tough decisions as to who to keep and who to release for the September 1, 2015 deadline to bring the rosters down to 75 players.

Many of these players who will be released are young men who are fighting for a career in the NFL. The preseason week 3 contests against the Dallas Cowboys could be their last chance to make a good impression and hopefully find a way to continue on the NFL.

There are currently 89 players on the Minnesota Vikings roster. That means that by 3 pm CT on Tuesday, at least 14 players will no longer be a part of the team.
