Emmanuel Lamur is in his second year with the Vikings after spending his first four seasons with the Bengals.
Lamur has taken advantage of opportunity, earning a job with Cincinnati in 2012 as an undrafted free agent out of Kansas State, during which time Vikings Head Coach Mike Zimmer was the Bengals defensive coordinator.
A signee of Minnesota’s during the 2016 offseason, Lamur has played in 29 games for Minnesota, mostly on special teams and as a reserve linebacker.
Born in West Palm Beach, Florida, Lamur is of Haitian heritage and has made helping people in the impoverished nation a priority.
