Vikings Add Anthony Barr To The COVID-19/Reserve Roster

MINNEAPOLIS (WCCO) — It’s been quite a week for Vikings players being added to the new roster of players on reserve due to COVID-19 concerns, and on Thursday another big name was added to that list.

The Vikings reported that linebacker Anthony Barr is currently on the reserve/COVID-19 roster.

Barr was a first-round draft pick for the Vikings in the 2014 draft. He’s been with the team ever since.

On Wednesday, the Vikings added defensive end Ifeadi Odenigbo, linebacker Cameron Smith and offensive tackle Oli Udoh to the roster. And on Tuesday, they announced four players were on that list, including Justin Jefferson, the 22nd overall pick in this year’s draft.
