Vikings Bring an Old Friend to the Active Roster Ahead of Week 17

The Minnesota Vikings were far from unscathed by the time their Week 16 game against the Detroit Lions ended.

Not only did they miss out on a chance to keep their hopes of another NFC North title alive, but they suffered multiple injuries along the way, including season-ending injuries for T.J. Hockenson and D.J. Wonnum. Amidst this new wave of injuries, the Vikings announced on Friday that an old friend would be coming to the active roster: Anthony Barr.
