Vikings rookies under-the-radar: Devante Downs

Watching players rebound from season-ending injuries can always be intriguing to see. There are always questions that arise regarding whether the player will be the same or how the injury impacted the player.

It was last October when the Vikings seventh-round draft pick went down with a season-ending knee injury.

Devante Downs, the six-foot-two, 252-pound linebacker from the University of California will look to pick up where he left off. The injury he sustained in week seven against Washington State interrupted what would have potentially been his best season at Cal.

Before his injury he had already recorded 65 tackles with a pair of interceptions.
